免疫佐剂与肿瘤消融联合治疗的进展：介导免疫效应以增强抗肿瘤疗效

Percutaneous tumor ablation is a minimally invasive treatment for tumors. The release of tumor neoantigens after ablation not only remodels the local tumor microenvironment, but also achieves abscopal effects by mediating local and systemic immune effects.

However, studies have shown that a single ablation technique is not sufficient to achieve the desired anti-tumor immune effect. Numerous studies have shown that the combination of immunoadjuvants and tumor ablation can transform immunologically "cold"tumors into "hot" tumors, significantly improving the suppressive anti-tumor immune properties of the local microenvironment, while enhancing systemic anti-tumor immunity and the abscopal effect. At the same time, it enhances the systemic anti-tumor immunity and abscopal effect. This paper reviews the immune responses induced by different ablation techniques, including thermal ablation, cryoablation, high-frequency focused ultrasound, photodynamic therapy, and irreversible electroporation.

The research progress in recent years on the combination of immunoadjuvants and ablation techniques in improving anti-tumor efficiency and enhancing immune effects is reviewed, mainly including traditional immunomodulators such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, adoptive cellular therapies, Toll-like receptor agonists, STING agonists, as well as emerging immunoadjuvants that are expected has great advantage in further enhance the synergistic anti-tumor efficiency and immune effects, such as tumor ablation in-situ vaccines, nano-metallic organic frameworks, polylactic acid-hydroxyacetic acid copolymers (PLGA), hydrogels and other nanomaterials.

This paper discusses recent research advances in the use of immunoadjuvants in combination with ablation, demonstrating the immense immune effects of this synergistic therapy and its promising application in clinical oncology treatment.
