High intratumoral CD8⁺ T‐cell infiltration is associated with improved survival in prostate cancer patients undergoing radical prostatectomy

Abstract

Intratumoral CD8⁺ T-cell infiltration in the RP specimen is independently associated with improved survival after RP in this high-risk prostate cancer cohort. Pre-RP immunomodulation that promotes intratumoral CD8⁺ cytotoxic T-cell infiltration may be beneficial for this population.
