Treatment with THIO sequentially followed by pembrolizumab results in highly potent anticancer effect, as compared to the effects of pembrolizumab alone. THIO administration converts immunologically "cold non-responsive" SCLC tumor into "hot and responsive to pembrolizumab." Figure Legend THIO (6-thio-dG) is highly synergistic and effective in combination with anti-PD-L1 agent atezolizumab and Ionizing Radiation (IR) in HCC53N cell-based model of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Treatment with THIO in combination with IR and Atezolizumab results in a complete regression of aggressive HCC tumors. At the same time, the combination of IR and Atezolizumab is just partially efficacious. 19
