Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cancer immunotherapy has revolutionized the treatment of various cancers, but has also presented new challenges because of treatment-induced resistance mechanisms in tumors and changes to patients' innate and adaptive immune responses. Several studies have revealed that cancer cells communicate with the immune system dynamically. Dynamic interaction between the tumor and the immune system, and with the cancer-specific therapy, occurs with each immunotherapy. Understanding these interactions will lead to the development of novel combination therapies and innovative sequencing approaches. In this Special Issue, we welcome articles, reviews, and perspectives regarding clinical and translational cancer immunotherapy, including in vitro and in vivo studies about new immunotherapeutic approaches and tumor–immune cell interactions, acquired immunity resistance to immunotherapy, and immunotherapy biomarkers.
