Association of TIM-3 checkpoint receptor expression on T cells with treatment-free remission in chronic myeloid leukemia

Key Points • TIM-3 is the only immune-checkpoint receptor consistently overexpressed in patients with CML who relapse after TKI cessation.• Overexpression of TIM-3 provides a rationale to test TIM-3 inhibitors to modify treatment-free remission outcomes.
