Cancer vaccines and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have recently been employed as immunotherapies for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Cancer vaccines for ESCC have yielded several promising results from investigator-initiated phase I and II clinical trials. Furthermore, a Randomized Controlled Trial as an adjuvant setting after curative surgery is in progress in Japan. On the other hand, ICI, anti-CTLA-4 mAb and anti-PD-1 mAb, have demonstrated tumor shrinkage and improved overall survival in patients with multiple cancer types. For ESCC, several clinical trials using anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 mAb are underway with several recent promising results. In this review, cancer vaccines and ICI are discussed as novel therapeutic strategies for ESCC.
