Results showed that responders had lower CD3+ T cell percentages and trends in CD74 expression compared to non-responders. Dr. Lathia highlighted MN-166's potential in enhancing CD3+ infiltration in glioblastoma patients. Chief Medical Officer Kazuko Matsuda noted the significance of these findings in addressing the challenges of glioblastoma treatment.
