The immunotherapy based on progress in tumour immunology became a part of intensive research as a novel strategy in cancer treatment.

Sipuleucel-T is the first and only medicinal product approved by the regulatory agencies in USA and Europe for the treatment of

asymptomatic or minimal symptomatic castrate- refractory prostate cancer. It represents the first product of autollogous cell therapy.

This article gives a brief overview about new approaches in the cancer immunotherapy in clinical development.

Keywords: prostate carcinoma, tumour immunology, immunotherapy, cancer vaccines
