Abstract

Tumor treating fields (TTFields), a biophysical therapy technology that uses alternating electric fields to inhibit tumor proliferation, has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of newly diagnosed or recurrent glioblastomas (GBM) and malignant pleural mesotheliomas (MPM). Clinical trials have confirmed that TTFields are effective in slowing the tumor growth and prolonging patient survival. In recent years, many researchers have found that TTFields can induce anti-tumor immune responses, and their main mechanisms include upregulating the infiltration ratio and function of immune cells, inducing the immunogenic cell death of tumor cells, modulating immune-related signaling pathways, and upregulating the expression of immune checkpoints. Treatment regimens combining TTFields with tumor immunotherapy are emerging as a promising therapeutic approach in clinical practice. Given the increasing number of recently published studies on this topic, we provide an updated review of the mechanisms and clinical implications of TTFields in inducing anti-tumor immune responses. This review not only has important reference value for an in-depth study of the anticancer mechanism of TTFields but also provides insights into the future clinical application of TTFields.

摘要

肿瘤治疗电场(TTFields)是一种利用交变电场抑制肿瘤增殖的生物物理治疗技术,已获美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)批准,用于治疗新诊断或复发性胶质母细胞瘤(GBM)和恶性胸膜间皮瘤(MPM)。临床试验已证实,TTFields可有效减缓肿瘤生长并延长患者生存期。近年来,许多研究人员发现TTFields可诱导抗肿瘤免疫反应,其主要机制包括上调免疫细胞的浸润率和功能、诱导肿瘤细胞发生免疫原性细胞死亡、调节免疫相关信号通路以及上调免疫检查点的表达。将TTFields与肿瘤免疫疗法相结合的治疗方案正在成为临床实践中一种有前景的治疗方法。鉴于近期关于该主题的研究发表数量不断增加,我们对TTFields诱导抗肿瘤免疫反应的机制及临床意义进行了更新综述。本综述不仅对深入研究TTFields的抗癌机制具有重要参考价值,也为TTFields未来的临床应用提供了见解。
