Systemic treatment approaches are urgently needed for a subset of meningioma patients who do not achieve local tumor control with surgery and radiotherapy. Classical chemotherapy or anti-angiogenic agents exert only very limited activity in these tumors. Long-term survival of patients with advanced metastatic cancer following treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors, i.e., monoclonal antibodies designed to unleash suppressed anticancer immune responses, has fostered hopes for benefit from similar approaches in patients with meningiomas that recur after standard local therapy. Moreover, a plethora of immunotherapy approaches beyond these drugs have entered clinical development or clinical practice for other cancer entities, including (i) novel immune checkpoint inhibitors that may act independently of T cell activity, (ii) cancer peptide or dendritic cell vaccines to induce anticancer immunity utilizing cancer-associated antigens, (iii) cellular therapies utilizing genetically modified peripheral blood cells to directly target cancer cells, (iv) T cell engaging recombinant proteins that link tumor antigen-binding sites to effector cell activating or recognition domains, or to immunogenic cytokines, and (v) oncolytic virotherapy utilizing attenuated viral vectors designed to specifically infect cancer cells, seeking to elicit systemic anticancer immunity. This chapter provides an overview of the principles of immunotherapy, summarizes ongoing immunotherapy clinical trials in meningioma patients, and discusses the applicability of established and emerging immunotherapy concepts to meningioma patients.
