Popis: Recently, immunotherapy has become the fourth pillar of cancer treatment in addition to surgery therapy, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. The inhibitors of programed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1 are the new stars in immunotherapy, as they can overcome tumor immunosuppression. However, the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitors still needs to be further developed for clinical treatment. Therefore, research into treatment with anti-PD-1 drugs has emerged as a new development field. This review provides novel insights into the role and mechanism of PD-1 combination anti-tumor therapy, thereby promoting its clinical application in anti-tumor immunotherapy.
