Therapeutic monoclonal antibodies blocking different immune checkpoints, have demonstrated efficacy against a wide variety of solid tumors. The exclusion or absence of lymphocytes within the tumor microenvironment (TME) is one of the main resistance mechanisms to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based therapies. Therefore, there is a growing interest in identifying novel approaches to promote T cell infiltration on immune-deserted (cold) and immune-excluded tumors to turn them into inflamed (hot) tumors. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of the recently published studies showing the potential of low-dose radiation (LDRT) to reprogram the TME to allow and promote T-cell infiltration and thus, improve currently approved ICI-based therapies.
