The impact of Immunotherapy on Ovarian Cancer
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 1
Abstract
Ovarian cancer that estimated to be the top fifth leading cause of cancer death in women all over the world. Compelling evidence indicates that the immune response against ovarian cancer may play crucial role in controlling this problem. This review will discuss the recent clinical developments of selected immunotherapies for ovarian cancer.68 articles had been reviewed carefully, our findings concluded that as the results of clinical trials of the discussed antibody based immunotherapies are inconsistent, it is still too early to conclude if these drugs will be incorporated into treatment regimens against ovarian cancer. Furthermore, their true potential may lie within being strategically employed in chemo-immunotherapy regimens.
