Abstract

Despite great expectations and research efforts, anticancer immunotherapy has not yet become a definitive cure. Perhaps, this is because past reductionist approaches were too simplistic for the patient-specific complex system of coevolving tumor cells and host immunity. Recent efforts based on a systems-based approach promise improved clinical outcomes engendered by a dynamic modification of personalized therapeutic regimens.
