Abstract
Patients with advanced lung cancer have poor survival, although they have received multidisciplinary therapy. Therefore, the novel effective therapy is needed. In various malignancies, tumor cells escape the host immune defenses, in which regulatory T cells (Tregs) play an important role. Tregs, maintaining self-tolerance and homeostasis in the immune system, suppress antitumor immune responses in cancer patients. Thus, Tregs are crucial in controlling antitumor immune responses. Several clinical studies show that a number of Tregs at tumor site was correlated with poor prognosis and Tregs suppress the antigen-specific T-cell induction in immunotherapy.
