ESMO 2026 | Radiotherapy before progression linked to lower TIL infiltration in patients with brain metastasis

Ariane Steindl, PhD, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria, discusses a study investigating inflammatory and epigenetic signatures in progressive brain metastases, highlighting that patients who received radiotherapy before progression had lower infiltration of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and higher infiltration of immunosuppressive markers. The analysis revealed an immune remodeling in progressive brain metastasis after radiotherapy, with an indication of increased immunosuppression in some patients, although no direct genetic or epigenetic drivers of progression were found. This interview took place at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2026 Congress in Madrid, Spain.
