免疫治疗是近年来癌症领域的一项重要进展，它通过激活患者自身的免系统来对抗癌细胞。与传统的化疗和放疗相比具有更高的特异性和更低的副作用风险；同时能够持久地增强患者的免疫力并提高治疗效果的持续时间和质量等优势使其成为重塑未来肿瘤治疗的希望之星之一 。目前已有多种基于不同机制的抗PD-1/LAG3抗体、CAR T 疗法以及双特异性TCR激动剂等多种新型药物进入临床试验阶段 ，为更多晚期或难治性恶性肿瘤的患者带来了新的生存机会和生活质量的改善空间 ；此外随着人工智能技术 、基因编辑技术和纳米材料等领域的发展也将进一步推动该领域的创新和发展进程 为实现精准化个性化医疗目标提供有力支持 和保障作用 .

在当今的医疗领域，随着科学技术的飞速发展，“immunotherapy”（即“免疗”或称生物治疗法），正逐渐成为对抗恶性肿瘤的新兴利器，这一治疗方法通过激活和调节患者自身的免疫力来识别并消灭癌细胞——一个与传统的手术、放疗以及化疗截然不同的策略，[1][2] [3]，本文将深入探讨其原理及其应用前景及面临的挑战等关键方面内容供读者参考学习之用。      一、“Immune System”——基础知识回顾 在理解任何形式的 immunotherapies之前首先需要了解人体内的 “immune system”，它是一个由多种不同类型的cells组成的复杂网络系统包括B淋巴细胞( B-lymphocytes)、T cells (如辅助性和杀伤性 T cell) 、巨噬细以及其他辅佐性的cell types构成它们共同工作以确保身体能够抵御外来病原体例如细菌病毒等的侵袭同时也能清除体内异常增生的组织比如某些类型的cancer cell[4]. 当遇到抗原时这些immunity components会迅速反应产生一系列的反应最终导致炎症过程的发生或者特定情况下启动抗击感染/疾病的防御措施. 而作为非自身物质被机体视为异物后同样会被这种高度特异行的检测体系所发现从而引发针对它们的特异性应答这为利用患者的自体防卫力量进行疾病控制提供了理论基础也正是我们今天讨论的重点所在—如何使我们的body's own immune response work against cancerous growth.  二、"How Does It Work?" ——深入了解机制？ Improper functioning or malfunctioning within this intricate network can lead to various autoimmune diseases, but when it comes specifically towards fighting cancers immunotherapies aim at correcting these abnormalities by either enhancing natural defenses through stimulationor reprogramming existing ones into more effective anti tumor responses.[5]One major class is called checkpoint inhibitors which target specific proteins on the surfaceof a t celss that normally regulate their activation state preventing them from attacking healthy tissues while also inhibiting attack upon tumors.* By blocking those checkpoints researchers have been able successfully activate dormant tumorkilling capabilities allowing for targeted assault without harmful side effects affecting normal tissue function like traditional chemotherapy might do*[6].[7]: This approach has shown remarkable success rates particularly among patients whose disease was previously considered refractory meaning they did not respond well too other treatments beforehand such cases include melanoma lung breast ovarian etc...
