Abstract

Sarcomas are a group of malignancies of mesenchymal origin with plethora of subtypes. Given the sheer heterogeneity of various subtypes and rarity of the disease, management of sarcomas has been challenging with poor patient outcomes. Surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy have remained the backbone of treatment in patients with sarcoma. The introduction of immunotherapy has rev-olutionized the treatment of various solid and hematological malignancies. In this review, we discuss basics of immunotherapy and immune microenvironment in sarcomas, various modalities of im-munotherapy such as immune checkpoint blockade, oncolytic viruses, cancer targeted antibodies, vaccine therapy and adoptive cell therapies like CAR T-cell therapy, T cell therapy, TCR therapy.
