Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) has been the most fatal gynecological disease that threatens women’s health. Surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy are the basic ovarian cancer treatments that can improve survival, but the five-year survival rate has not improved because of delayed diagnosis, drug resistance, and recurrence. Novel treatments are needed to improve the prognosis and survival rate of ovarian cancer patients. In recent years, adoptive cell therapy (ACT) has received increasing attention as an emerging therapeutic strategy in the treatment of solid tumors including OC. ACT has shown promising results in many preclinical and clinical trials of OC. The application of ACT depends on different effector cells, such as lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), and genetically modified T cells. In this review, we focus on adoptive immunotherapies in ovarian cancer and summarize completed and ongoing preclinical/clinical trials. The future development directions and obstacles for ACT in OC treatment are discussed.
