Immunotherapy for the Breast Cancer treatment: Current Evidence and Therapeutic Options. (PubMed, Endocr Metab Immune Disord Drug Targets)
Although, commonly used treatments like trastuzumab/pertuzumab for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2) positive and hormone therapy for estrogen receptor (ER) positive and/or progesterone receptor (PR) positive BC are specific but triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cases remain a great challenge for treatment measures. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (anti-PD-1/ anti-CTLA-4) and anti-cancer vaccines (NeuVax, Muc-1, AVX901, INO-1400 and CEA), either alone or in combination with other therapies have created new paradigm in therapeutic world. In this review, we highlighted the current immunotherapeutic aspects and their ongoing trials towards the better treatment regimen for BC.
