The role of the tumor‑infiltrating lymphocytes in the prognosis of patients
Supplementum 01/2019 Imunoterapie
MUDr. Zuzana Střížová, prof. MUDr. Jiřina Bartůňková, DrSc.
The role of the tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and its relationship to prognosis has been extensively studied in multiple cancers. Systematic reviews and meta-analysis have shown a positive correlation between the lymphocyte infiltration and the overall survival (OS) and also have revealed the possibility of predicting therapeutic response to immunotherapy by evaluating the lymphocyte density in the tumor. However, the presence of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes must be described together with the functional features and the phenotypic patterns of the cells. The potential of TIL is evident and therefore, establishing systematic guidelines for evaluation and interpretation of TIL may provide a powerful tool in predicting the survival of the patient and selecting an optimal therapeutic approach.

Advances in the development of anti-cancer vaccines

Immunotherapy has accomplished an impressive success within the past several years and therefore is widely accepted as a breakthrough therapy in the field of oncology. The rapid development of modern methods has led to generation of highly personalized biological and cellular therapy. In the solid tumor treatment, checkpoint inhibitors turned to be a very perspective therapeutic modality however, the prevention of undesired autoimmune events should be targeted in ongoing clinical trials. In hematological malignancies, application of CAR T cells showed significant results and combining CAR T cells with oncolytic viruses might be a promising approach in the future. Here we provide the systematic review of the modern immune-oncologic approaches and present the course of basic research in the field of cancer immunotherapy.
