T-cell receptor therapy (TCR-T) has demonstrated efficacy, durability, and safety advantages in certain solid tumors (such as human papillomavirus-related tumors, synovial sarcoma, and melanoma). This study aimed to provide careful considerations for developing TCR-T for solid tumors. Therefore, in this review, we have summarized the current clinical application, advantage of TCR-T modalities and explored efficacy/safety-related parameters, particularly avidity, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, and indications, for solid tumors. Furthermore, we have investigated critical factors related to avidity, including antigen selection, T-cell receptor acquisition, optimization, and co-receptor engagement. Moreover, we have re-examined the expression of tumor antigens for a potentially higher coverage rate of solid tumors based on the current RNA-seq datasets. Finally, we have discussed the current limitations and future directions of TCR-Ts.
