Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers such as gastric, esophageal, pancreas, hepatobiliary, colorectal and anal cancers are a major cause of cancer related mortality worldwide. Traditional treatment options such as chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, monoclonal antibodies and anti-angiogenic agents have been the backbone of treatment of GI cancers in various stages. Current cancer research is moving forward to incorporate immunotherapies in the treatment of GI cancers either as single agent or in combination with current available treatment modalities. This review summarizes the existing and ongoing immunotherapies in the treatment of GI cancers.
胃肠道(GI)癌症,如胃癌、食管癌、胰腺癌、肝胆癌、结直肠癌和肛管癌,是全球癌症相关死亡的主要原因。传统的治疗选择,如化疗、手术、放疗、单克隆抗体和抗血管生成药物,一直是各阶段胃肠道癌症治疗的支柱。目前的癌症研究正在向前发展,将免疫疗法纳入胃肠道癌症的治疗中,无论是作为单一药物还是与现有的治疗方式联合使用。这篇综述总结了目前和正在进行的用于治疗胃肠道癌症的免疫疗法。
