Abstract Osteosarcoma is a malignant tumor with extreme invasiveness and metastasis as well as dismal prognosis. It is critical to rapidly find a unique therapy strategy capable of significantly improving the prognosis of osteosarcoma. Tumor immunotherapy has the potential to reawaken the immune system, restart and sustain the tumor-immune cycle in the body, resulting in the death of tumor cells. CD8+ CTL, CD4+ T cells, NK cells and NKT cells all play critical roles in tumor immunity, while humoral immunity may not only inhibit tumor growth but also enhance it. Researchers have devised various strategies to boost the immune system in recent years based on tumor immune response studies. This paper highlights and examines osteosarcoma immunotherapy from two perspectives: (1) boosting the response of patient’s own immune system to the tumor; (2) exogenously improving the patient’s immunological function.
