cancer: mechanisms and cutting-edge therapeutic approaches  \nMuhammad Tufail 1, Can-Hua Jiang1,2,3,4 and Ning Li1,2,3,4 ✉  \n\n|  | Immune evasion represents a significant challenge in oncology. It allows tumors to evade immune surveillance and destruction, thereby complicating therapeutic interventions and contributing to suboptimal patient outcomes. This review addresses the critical need to understand how cancers evade immune surveillance. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of strategies of tumors to escape immune detection by examining tumor-induced immune suppression, immune checkpoint regulation, and genetic and epigenetic influences. Moreover, it explores the dynamic role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in fostering immune resistance and highlights the impact of metabolic reprogramming on immune suppression. Additionally, this review focuses on how tumor heterogeneity influences immune evasion and discusses the limitations of current immunotherapies. The role of key signaling pathways, including programmed cell death protein 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1), cytotoxic Tlymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), and cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS–STING) is analyzed to elucidate their contributions to immune escape. Emphasizing the complexities of immune evasion, this review underscores the importance of personalized approaches and the integration of multi-omics data to combat therapeutic resistance. Furthermore, it discusses novel and emerging therapeutic strategies, such as bispecific antibodies, oncolytic viruses, and nanotechnology-driven immunotherapies, showcasing innovative avenues in cancer treatment. The significance of this review lies in its potential to guide future research and |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |\n| innovations in immunotherapy, ultimately improving patient outcomes and advancing our understanding of cancer immunology. |  |  |\n|  | Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy (2025)10:227 ; [https://doi.org/10.1038/s41392-025-02280-1](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41392-025-02280-1) |  |\n|  |  |  |\n\nINTRODUCTION  \nCancer remains a significant challenge for modern medicine.1 The immune system is essential for recognizing and destroying abnormal cells, maintaining cellular homeostasis, and protecting against malignant changes.2 However, cancer cells are using various complex mechanisms to evade immune surveillance, enabling them to grow uncontrollably and ultimately form lifethreatening tumors.3,4  \nThe immune evasion phenomenon in cancer involves a complex interplay among tumor cells, the TME, and immune cells.5 Tumor cells evade immune detection and destruction through various strategies, including altering antigen presentation, creating an immunosuppressive microenvironment, and inhibiting immune cell function.6,7 These tactics enable cancer cells to persist and grow despite the immune system’s efforts to eradicate them.  \nRecent immunology and oncology advances reveal mechanisms of immune evasion, providing new insights into how cancer cells manage to subvert immune responses.8,9 New findings have led to treatments targeting immune evasion, including immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), CAR-T cell therapy, and cancer vaccines, offering hope for previously untreatable cancers.10, 11  \nThis review article provides a complete summary of how cancer cells escape the immune system and the most recent  \nbreakthroughs in therapy to address these obstacles.
