Abstract:
As a new therapeutic strategy for esophageal cancer, immunotherapy has attracted more and more attention. The completed and ongoing clinical trials of immunotherapy for esophageal cancer confirm the great potential of immune checkpoint inhibitors in esophageal cancer. Future research will focus on the combination of immunotherapy with existing or new therapeutic modalities and the identification of populations likely to benefit from immunotherapy.
