Book excerpt: The Past decade has seen significant advances in cancer immunotherapy with the development of multiple strategies including monoclonal antibodies targeting checkpoint blockers, oncolytic viruses, fusion proteins and cell therapies such as tumor-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-) T cell therapy, NK cell therapy and γδ-T-cell therapy. Multiple cell therapies including sipuleucel-T (Provange), axicabtagene ciloleucel (Yescarta), brexucabtagene autoleucel (Tecartus), tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah), lisocabtagene maraleucel (Breyanzi), idecabtagene vicleucel (Abecma) and ciltacabtagene autoleucel (Carvykti) have been approved by the US FDA for different hematological cancers and hormone-refractory prostate cancer (Provange). Impressive results were noted with CAR-T cell therapy with objective response rates (ORR) as high as 100% in certain hematological cancers and with responses durable over 10 years in some patients.
