Immune-checkpoint inhibitors have dramatically improved the outcomes in patients with advanced-stage cancers, although the majority of patients will not respond to these agents. Here, the authors describe the potential of targeting emerging immunomodulatory pathways, with a focus on alternative immune checkpoints and tumour metabolism as approaches that might enable further improvements in the outcomes of patients with cancer, either as monotherapies or in combination with existing agents.
