Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
New treatments such as immune checkpoint inhibitor, molecular-targeted agent, and antibody drug conjugate, developed for GI cancer, result in improving patient’s outcome in the last decade. We believe that deep insight into the tumor immunological background of GI cancer will develop novel combination immunotherapy. Moreover, analyzing molecular background by gene panel testing using next-generation sequencer and then appropriate patient’s selection are essential for the development of combination immunotherapy. Based on tumor immunology, Special Issue will highlight recent important and promising research for making breakthrough in immunotherapy for GI cancer.
