    AbstractHepatocellular carcinoma is a common malignancy which usually emerges on a background of chronic liver disease. Unfortunately, with contemporary management, patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma have few treatment options, and prognosis is poor. The emergence of immunotherapy has afforded new therapeutic opportunities. This article reviews the clinical evidence for immunotherapy in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and presents ideas for future drug development.Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
