For example, in randomised clinical trials of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), pembrolizumab has been shown to be effective in slowing down disease progression and improving survival rates 1. However, adverse effects such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity still occur. Jespersen et al.

An additional level of genetic control is provided by gene switches that are located upstream of the promoter region. These genetic switches assist transcription factors in binding to the promoter region. This is true for any genetic products or byproducts of the metabolic pathways that are toxic to the host.
