Small molecule innate immune modulators in cancer therapy
Immunotherapy has proved to be a breakthrough in cancer treatment. So far, a bulk of the approved/late-stage cancer immunotherapy are antibody-based. Although these antibody-based drugs have demonstrated great promise, a majority of them are limited due to their access to extracellular targets, lack of oral bioavailability, tumor microenvironment penetration, induction of antibody dependent cytotoxicity etc. In recent times, there has been an increased research focus on the development of small molecule immunomodulators since they have the potential to overcome the aforementioned limitations posed by antibodies. Furthermore, while most biologics based therapeutics that are in clinical use are limited to modulating the adaptive immune system, very few clinically approved therapeutic modalities exist that modulate the innate immune system. The innate immune system, which is the body’s first line of defense, has the ability to turn cold tumors hot and synergize strongly with existing adaptive immune modulators. In preclinical studies, small molecule innate immune modulators have demonstrated synergistic efficacy as combination modalities with current standard-of-care immune checkpoint antibodies. In this review, we highlight the recent advances made by small molecule innate immunomodulators in cancer immunotherapy.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Immunology is a leading journal in its field, publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research across basic, translational and clinical immunology. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide.
Frontiers in Immunology is the official Journal of the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS). Encompassing the entire field of Immunology, this journal welcomes papers that investigate basic mechanisms of immune system development and function, with a particular emphasis given to the description of the clinical and immunological phenotype of human immune disorders, and on the definition of their molecular basis.
