Caroline Jochems Frohlich, M.D., Ph.D.

Team Member of:
Dr. Jochems Frohlich focuses on translational research investigating combinations of novel immunotherapeutic approaches to target various human cancers. Her group uses a combination of in vitro and in vivo studies in syngeneic and humanized mouse models to evaluate new immunotherapeutics, as well as combinations of immunotherapeutics with non-immune-based therapies
1) cancer immunotherapy, 2) clinical trials, 3) tumor immunology, 4) cellular immunology, 5) immune biomarkers

The Laboratory of Tumor Immunology and Biology develops novel immunotherapeutics that are translated from hypothesis-driven preclinical studies to clinical trials. The Cellular Immunology Group conducts translational research investigating combinations of new immunotherapeutic approaches to target various human cancers. We conduct both in vitro and in vivo studies in syngeneic and humanized mouse models to evaluate novel immunotherapeutics, as well as combinations of immunotherapeutics with non-immune-based therapies. Our group also studies patients' immune responses to provide critical information toward the development of more effective immunotherapeutic approaches to cancer.
