9 Conclusions Vemurafenib does not adversely effect the function of human or murine lymphocytes Combination of vemurafenib with ACT immunotherapy is mediated by improved intratumoral infiltration by activated lymphocytes: Increased IFN-g production by TILs Modulation of the tumor microenviroment? The clinical testing of a combination of vemurafenib and ipilimumab, and/or vemurafenib and ACT therapy, is warranted Acknowledgements Begonya Comin-Anduix, hd Thinle Chodon, MD, hd Stephen Mok Richard Koya, MD, hd Earl Avramis Mohammad Atefi, h.d.
