Abstract
Immune checkpoint-blocking therapies have yielded positive clinical data in a series of human malignancies. Recent work from Le and colleagues strongly supports the use of these therapies for mismatch repair-deficient tumors, independent of underlying tumor type. These data suggest the importance of sensing the consequences of DNA damage in cancer immunotherapy.
