Abstract
Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignant tumor among women, with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) being one of the most aggressive forms due to its high invasiveness and metastatic potential. Traditional treatments such as endocrine therapy and anti-HER2-targeted therapy are largely ineffective for TNBC, and while chemotherapy shows some promise, resistance remains a significant hurdle. Recently, there has been increasing interest in biological therapies, especially oncolytic viruses (OVs). OVs promote anti-tumor effects by selectively killing tumor cells and stimulating immune responses, and have achieved notable breakthroughs in breast cancer treatment. OVs have demonstrated effectiveness comparable to surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy in selected cancers, but data are sparse in the context of TNBC. This review provides an overview of recent progress in the application of OVs as a tool for precision TNBC treatment.
期刊介绍：
Original research papers, reviews, and short research communications in any medical related area can be submitted to the Journal on the understanding that the work has not been published previously in whole or part and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts in basic science and clinical medicine are both considered. There is no restriction on the length of research papers and reviews, although authors are encouraged to be concise. Short research communication is limited to be under 2500 words.
