Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. Conventional methods of UM treatment are based on chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which have been able to control tumor growth in a limited way. But due to the inadequacy and many side effects of these treatments, many UM patients die during treatment, and approximately 50% of patients develop metastasis. Meanwhile, the 2-year survival rate of these patients from the time of metastasis is 8%. Since immunotherapy has the potential to be the most specific and efficient method in the treatment of tumors, it is considered an attractive and promising research field in the treatment of UM. This review highlights recent advances in UM immunotherapy and provides new immunological approaches on how to overcome the challenges of UM immunotherapy.
葡萄膜黑色素瘤(UM)是成年人中最常见的原发性眼内恶性肿瘤。UM 的常规治疗方法基于化疗和放疗,这些方法在一定程度上能够控制肿瘤生长。但是,由于这些治疗方法的不足和许多副作用,许多 UM 患者在治疗过程中死亡,大约 50%的患者发生转移。同时,这些患者从转移开始的 2 年生存率为 8%。由于免疫疗法有可能成为治疗肿瘤最具特异性和有效性的方法,因此它被认为是 UM 治疗中一个有吸引力和有前途的研究领域。本综述强调了 UM 免疫疗法的最新进展,并提供了新的免疫方法,以克服 UM 免疫疗法的挑战。
