The rapid flow of studies in the field of cancer immunology during the last decade has increased our understanding of the interactions between the immune system and cancerous cells. In particular, it is now well known that such interactions result in the induction of epigenetic changes in cancerous cells and the selection of less immunogenic clones as well as alterations in immune responses. Understanding the cross-talk between nascent transformed cells and cells of the immune system has led to the development of combinatorial immunotherapeutic strategies to combat cancer. The Cancer Immunology series, a three-volume book series, is intended as an up-to-date, clinically relevant review of cancer immunology and immunotherapy. The first edition of the book was published 4 years ago, which was very welcomed by readers and made us to work on the second edition of the book in such a short period of time. Volume I, Cancer Immunology: A Translational Medicine Context, is focused on the immunopathology of cancers. Volume II, Cancer Immunology: Bench to Bedside Immunotherapy of Cancers, is a translation text explaining novel approaches in the immunotherapy of cancers; and finally, volume III, Cancer Immunology: Cancer Immunotherapy for Organ-Specific Tumors, thoroughly addresses the immunopathology and immunotherapy of organspecific cancers. In volume II, clinical applications of cancer immunotherapy are fully described. Notably, the principal focus is very much on putting the basic knowledge gained on tumor immunology in volume I into clinical perspective, with the aim to educate clinicians on the most recent approaches used in tumor immunotherapy. To meet this purpose, this volume was extended from 27 chapters in the first edition to 32 chapters in the second edition.
