Pheast KOL Webinar: "Restoring Macrophages to the Center of Cancer Immune Surveillance"
August 10, 2026
"Restoring Macrophages to the Center of Cancer Immune Surveillance" is an educational webinar hosted by Pheast Therapeutics on the emerging role of macrophage checkpoint biology and innate immune activation in solid tumors, featuring two leading voices in cancer immunotherapy.
Macrophages are among the most abundant immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, yet their potential as drivers of anti-tumor immunity remains largely untapped. This scientific session explores how innate immune surveillance, and the "don't eat me" signals that suppress it, is reshaping our understanding of hard-to-treat solid tumors. Two internationally recognized experts in cancer immunotherapy share perspectives on the science, the clinical translation, and what lies ahead. The presentations are followed by live audience Q&A.
