RESUMEN

A pesar de los avances hechos en los últimos años en el diagnóstico temprano y los tratamientos, el cáncer de mama continúa siendo el de mayor frecuencia y mortalidad en las mujeres de todo el mundo. Terapias alternativas como la inmunoterapia se han evaluado en ensayos clínicos, pero han demostrado una eficacia limitada. El fracaso de la inmunoterapia puede estar relacionado con mecanismos inmunosupresores presentes en el microambiente tumoral. En consecuencia, para el desarrollo de nuevas estrategias terapéuticas basadas en inmunoterapia es muy importante entender los mecanismos inmunorreguladores presentes en los tumores mamarios. En esta revisión se discuten algunos de los mecanismos inmunorreguladores descritos en el cáncer de mama.
