Combination therapy of JAK1i with anti-PD1 slows down tumor growth and reduces CCR2+ cells infiltration in atherosclerotic lesions compared to anti-PD1 alone. Representative PET images of cardio-oncology mice treated with anti-PD1 alone or in combination with JAK1i. The PET uptake was normalized by subtracting blood retention.
