About this Research Topic
The goal of this topic is to provide a comprehensive view of the current state-of-the-art, imminent and future directions of the fields in order to accelerate the pre-clinical development, clinical translation, and manufacturing of new approaches for cancer immunotherapy, including engineered immune cells, oncolytic viruses, neoantigen vaccines, and so on. We do invite submissions of original research, brief research reports, including case reports, and review articles, including mini-reviews and systematic reviews.
We are especially interested in state-of-the-art immunotherapy methods for solid tumors in the following research areas:
1) Gene-modified immune cell therapy methods, including CAR-T, TCR-T, CAR-NK, CAR-M, CAR-γδT, and others.
2) Developments of oncolytic viruses and oncolytic bacteria
3) Other new immunotherapy methods for solid tumors, including neoantigen vaccines
Please Note: Manuscripts consisting solely of bioinformatics or computational analysis of public genomic or transcriptomic databases that are not accompanied by validation (independent cohort or biological validation in vitro or in vivo) are out of scope for this Section and will not be accepted as part of this Research Topic.
Keywords: oncolytic virus
