Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) has demonstrated curative potential in select cancers, but its translation to solid tumors such as ovarian cancer (OC) has been hindered by multiple factors, including tumor heterogeneity, immune exclusion, and a profoundly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of current ACT modalities, including tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, T cell receptor-engineered, and chimeric antigen receptor-T cell therapies, as well as emerging approaches such as bispecific T cell engager (BiTE)-secreting T cells, dual-targeting platforms, and synthetic antigen receptors. We examine their application in OC and contextualize relevant findings using insights from other solid tumors. Key barriers, including limited T cell persistence, antigen escape, and T cell exhaustion, are explored alongside strategies to enhance efficacy through cytokine armoring, checkpoint modulation, metabolic reprogramming, and gene editing. We further highlight innovations in safety engineering, including logic-gated and self-regulating synthetic circuits, to mitigate toxicity and improve precision. Additional attention is given to the evolving role of allogeneic products and in vivo engineering as scalable solutions. Finally, we emphasize the critical value of integrating high-dimensional tools such as spatial transcriptomics, single-cell profiling, and machine learning to refine ACT design, identify biomarkers of response, and support patient selection and stratification. Collectively, these advances offer a roadmap for overcoming the unique immunologic barriers to ACT in OC and accelerating the development of more potent, durable, and personalized T cell-based strategies.
