Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues, 

In the last decade, the significant expansion of therapeutic options has transformed the management of almost all forms of cancer. Immunotherapy refers to a novel approach that enables the human immune system to recognize self and non-self and activate an antitumor response in a more precise way. Recent advances in immunotherapy have been at the forefront of this revolution, leading to viable therapeutic options in previously minimally responsive cancers such as gastric and pancreatic cancer. However, because the microenvironment and genetics of each tumor are distinct, enhancing the effect of immunotherapy requires a sophisticated and individualized approach.

It is thus crucial to understand these mechanisms, identify the patient subgroups that are most likely to benefit from immunotherapy, and determine the clinical characteristics of patients with the lowest risk of developing major adverse events.

Therefore, this Special Issue welcomes the submission of papers that explore the advancement of exploration, enhance our understanding of the tumor microenvironment as a predictive and prognostic marker and provide an in-depth understanding of the genomics of different cancer types in order to develop more precise and effective immunotherapy for cancer.
