Abstract:
Many advances in the treatment of cancer have been driven by the development of targeted therapies that inhibit oncogenic signaling pathways and tumor-associated angiogenesis, as well as by the therapies that acti-vate immune system to unleash antitumor immunity. Many clinically approved therapies, including monoclonal anti-bodies,antibody-drug conjugates,bispecific antibodies and immune checkpoints, have become important strategies for cancer treatment. Recently, tumor immunotherapy is becoming more and more popular, and antibody medicines acquiring above mentioned immune-modulating effects, such as increasing tumor antigenicity or promoting intratu-moral T cell infiltration, had achieved great clinical benefits; monoclonal antibody medicine in combination with tu-mor immunotherapy, molecular targeted antibody medicine, chemotherapy or small molecular inhibitors and even surgery, will further enlarge the application value of antibody medicines in tumor therapies.
