Cancer is becoming one of the deadliest disease in both developed as well as developing countries and continuous effort is being made to find innovative therapies for myriad types of cancers that afflict the human body. Therapeutic options for cancer have grown exponentially over the time but we are quite a way off from finding a magic bullet that can help cure cancer and based on the current evidence we may never find a catch all cure ever and it becomes crucial that we keep on innovating and find multiple ways to attack the menace of this dreaded disease. Many patients suffer recurrence of disease and require second-line or in some cases more than two lines of treatment.

Latest developments in treatment of various cancers that have been discussed include gene editing using CRISPR/Cas9, theranostics, viral mediated therapy, artificial intelligence, tumor infiltrating lymphocyte therapy, etc.
