Résumé
Recent evidence highlights patients' sex relevance in antitumor immune response through a complex interaction-among hormones, genes, behaviors, and the microbiome-that affects both innate and adaptive immune functions, as well as immune evasion mechanisms. These complex interactions ultimately influence the efficacy and toxicity of immune checkpoint inhibitors in solid tumors.
