Liver cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors and currently ranks the fourth in morbidity rate and the second in mortality rate in China. At present, the main clinical treatmentmethod is surgical treatment and other treatments, such as interventional therapy, local radiotherapy and chemotherapy, serve as supplementary treatment methods. However, due to the occult incidence of liver cancer, most patients have entered the advanced stage at the time of diagnosis and lack effective treatment methods, resulting in low overall survival rate, high mortality rate and poor prognosis. Immunotherapy, especially cellular immunotherapy, as an emerging cancer treatment method, can directly kill tumor cells or stimulate the anti-tumor immune response by isolating and activating immune effector cells. Common methods include chimeric antigen receptor T cells, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and cytokine-induced killer cells, etc. Recently, cellular immunotherapy has become a research hotspot because it can enhance the immune function, reduce the recurrence rate and prolong the survival time of patients. This article reviews the advances in the study of cellular immunotherapy in the clinical application of liver cancer.
肝癌是最常见的恶性肿瘤之一，目前在我国常见恶性肿瘤中发病率排第四位，病死率排第二位。目前临床主要采取以手术治疗为主，介入治疗、局部放疗和化疗为辅的综合治疗方法，但由于肝癌发病隐匿，多数患者被诊断时已进入晚期而缺乏有效的治疗方式，使得肝癌患者总体生存率低、病死率高、预后差。免疫治疗特别是细胞免疫治疗作为一种新兴的癌症治疗手段，可通过分离激活免疫效应细胞直接杀伤肿瘤细胞或激发机体抗肿瘤免疫反应，常见方法包括嵌合抗原受体T细胞、肿瘤浸润性淋巴细胞、细胞因子诱导的杀伤细胞等。细胞免疫治疗具有增强机体免疫功能、降低患者复发率、延长患者生存时间等特点，现已成为研究热点。现就细胞免疫治疗在肝癌临床应用中的研究进展作一综述。.
