ABSTRACT
Immunotherapy is revolutionizing in the treatment of cancer. In advanced stage patients it
can achieve remarkable responses, including complete recovery and long-term survival.
However, immunotherapy also has limitations, such as its relatively low response rate and the
development of serious side effects. These deficiencies are gradually overcomed by
improving our understanding of the immune system and establishing a combination of
immunotherapy and other treatment modalities. Additionally, in recent years, advances in
materials science, chemistry, nanotechnology have begun to affect immuno-oncology,
resulting in more efficacious and reduced toxic immunotherapy interventions. The extensive
relationship between the immune system and cancer is opening up a new exploration
hallmark for nanomedicine. Here, all the commonalities and synergies between these two
fields are reviewed and described, as well as recent methods that show the advancement of
biomarkers developed by banks in nanomedicine and tumor immunotherapy. In this regard, it
has been shown that a variety of different nanomedicine formulations and macroscopic
materials can stimulate immunity against cancer and the efficacy of immunomodulatory
drugs.
