Several novel strategies have harnessed the ability of T cells to target cancer cells. Each treatment approach is based on unique platforms that should encourage development of further therapeutic agents in the future. The authors describe the background and development of distinct immunotherapy platforms, summarize the scientific advances in understanding the mechanism of action of each therapy, and discuss future strategies to improve these immunotherapies through enhanced engineering, biomarker selection, and mechanism-based combination regimens.
