The review is devoted to the methods of bioimmunotherapy of oncological pathology used in the clinic for the recent 20—25 years and, to the higher extent, the principles of cellular immunotherapy of cancerous epithelial tumors of the digestive system. The surgical method is recognized as a «gold standard» in the therapy of the digestive system cancer. Bioimmunotherapy of the digestive system cancer has not achieved the sufficient clinical efficiency. In this connection, new pathophysiological approaches to biotherapy of the digestive system cancer based, in particular, on original results of Russian scientists are analyzed.
