The immune-related response criteria were the first rules to recognise that a tumour treated with immunotherapy can grow, or show new spots, before it responds.
Using phase 2 data on ipilimumab in advanced melanoma, Wolchok and colleagues (Clinical Cancer Research 2009) described four response patterns: shrinkage without new lesions; durable stable disease, sometimes followed by slow decline; response after an initial increase in tumour burden; and response in the presence of new lesions. All were associated with favourable survival. The immune-related response criteria were defined to capture the last two, which RECIST and WHO criteria would have called progression. iRECIST later took over this role in most trials.
