• Sommario/riassunto: This book provides insight into the various immunotherapeutic approaches for the treatment of lung cancers. The chapters of the book discuss the detailed mechanisms of checkpoint inhibitors, co-stimulatory molecules, drugs working in the immunosuppressive environment, and various vaccines for lung cancer. A chapter of the book explores the recent applications of the oncolytic virus in lung cancer treatment and discusses the potential and direction of oncolytic virus-based therapeutic vaccines. The chapter also elucidates the current understanding of the role of Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs) in tumor progression, and the recent progress in utilizing TLR agonists as potential therapeutic agents in lung cancer treatment. Towards the end, the book reviews the applications of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and immunotherapy for the treatment of lung cancer. This book provides useful information to a range of audiences including clinical researchers working in the field of lung cancer, and undergraduate and postgraduate students from various disciplines such as pharmacy, microbiology, immunology, pharmacology, biotechnology, and health sciences.
