Abstract: Cancer immunotherapy has great potential and is expected to become the mainstream method of cancer treatment.In the current application of cancer immunotherapy,immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)have achieved remarkable results.The currently widely used ICIs in clinical practice include inhibitors targeting cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4(CTLA-4),programmed death-1(PD-1)and programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1).In addition,new immunotherapies such as oncolytic viruses and chimeric antigen receptor T cells are gradually entering the clinical practice,and combination therapy related to ICIs has shown unique advantages.This article will focus on the current application status of ICIs,oncolytic viruses,and chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapies in solid tumors either their individual or combined forms.

Key words: Immunotherapy, Immune checkpoint inhibitors, Oncolytic virus therapy, Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy
