The subject matter disclosed herein is generally directed to modulating anti-tumor T cell immunity by modulating steroidogenesis. Steroidogenesis may be modulated with inhibitors of enzymes that synthesize glucocorticoids in a tumor. The inhibitor may target Cyp11a1. The inhibitor may be metyrapone. The invention further relates to modulating immune states, such as CD8 T cell immune states, in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro. The invention further relates to diagnostic and screening methods.
