Abstract
Abstract:
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) presents considerable obstacles
because of its highly aggressive characteristics and limited availability of specific
therapeutic interventions. The utilization of monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based
immunotherapy is a viable approach to tackle these difficulties. This review aims to
examine the present state of mAb-based immunotherapy in TNBC, focusing on the
underlying mechanisms of action, clinical applications, and existing challenges. The
effectiveness of mAbs in reducing tumor development, regulating immune responses,
and changing the tumor microenvironment has been demonstrated in many clinical
investigations. The challenges encompass several aspects such as the discovery of
biomarkers, understanding resistance mechanisms, managing toxicity, considering
costs, and ensuring accessibility. The future is poised to bring forth significant
advancements in the field of biomedicine, particularly in the areas of new mAbs,
personalized medicine, and precision immunotherapy. In conclusion, mAb-based
immunotherapy has promise in revolutionizing the treatment of TNBC, hence providing
a possible avenue for enhanced patient outcomes and quality of life.
