TL;DR
The central conclusion of this review is that effective clinical translation will necessitate a paradigm shift from discrete pathway inhibition toward integrated precision immuno-oncology strategies that combine molecular profiling, immune-contexture analysis, and mechanism-based combination therapies.
INTRODUCTION
Immunotherapy resistance is mediated by mechanisms distinct from those underlying conventional chemotherapy, including tumor-intrinsic alterations, an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and other host factors, that collectively constrain durable responses.

Immune checkpoint blockade targeting PD-1/PD-L1 has reshaped cancer therapy across multiple tumor types. However, primary and acquired resistance remain major barriers to durable clinical benefit. Increasing evidence indicates that immunotherapy resistance is not driven by isolated molecular alterations, but by coordin...

This review integrates the major tumor-intrinsic and tumor-extrinsic mechanisms that drive ICI resistance, including defective antigen presentation, impaired interferon signaling, oncogenic and epigenetic immune escape programs, metabolic rewiring, suppressive myeloid and stromal circuits, abnormal vasculature, and pro...

Cutaneous melanoma remains a global health challenge. Although BRAF/MEK-targeted therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have improved outcomes in advanced disease, durable responses remain difficult to achieve for most patients. Therapeutic resistance represents the central barrier to long-term disease contr...

While immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the treatment landscape for melanoma and lung cancer, their efficacy in prostate cancer (PCa) remains limited. This therapeutic resistance is linked in part to the "cold" immunophenotype of PCa, which is orchestrated by a highly immunosuppressive tumor micro...
