Abstract:
Chemoimmunotherapy or biochemotherapy, the combination of chemotherapy with immunotherapy, is a novel compre-hensive treatment model for malignant carcinoma. In recent years, many clinical trials have shown that biochemotherapy is associated with an improved response rate. Such biological agents include tumor vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, cytokines, and immunocompe-tent cells. In this article, we review the theories, sort the clinical applications of novel treatments, and discuss some of the problems existing in this field.
