Abstract
Purpose of review: Identification of biomarkers for immunotherapy treatment in triple negative breast cancer remains crucial for improving outcomes and optimising regimes, particularly in the perioperative setting. There is a need to conduct a scoping review to provide an overview of current research, explore the wider context, and highlight future research considerations in this field.
Recent findings: The most commonly assessed biomarkers are PD-L1, TILs and CD8 + cells with correlation to outcomes mainly focused on survival. There is a growing interest in evaluating genetic markers. Conclusions are currently limited by knowledge gaps around contextual factors. Important areas of focus for future research include a greater understanding of complex cellular, genetic and metabolic interactions in the perioperative tumour microenvironment, including patient-specific immune profiles. An important challenge remains elucidating the clinical significance of the immunological effects of interventions at each stage of the perioperative period, including the use of anaesthetic agents.
期刊介绍:
This journal aims to review the most important, recently published clinical findings in the field of oncology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal intends to serve all those involved in the care of those affected by cancer.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as cancer prevention, leukemia, melanoma, neuro-oncology, and palliative medicine. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
