However, over the last few decades, it has been widely accepted that interaction between the tumour and host immune response plays a critical role in regulating tumour biology and hence its progression. The first such research dates back to 1891, when William Coley attempted to inject heat-inactivated bacteria to treat osteosarcoma.
