  Abstract Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is a partially ionized gas that gains attention

as a well-tolerated cancer treatment that can enhance anti-tumor immune

responses, which are important for durable therapeutic effects. This review

offers a comprehensive and critical summary on the current understanding of

mechanisms in which CAP can assist anti-tumor immunity: induction of

immunogenic cell death, oxidative post-translational modifications of the

tumor and its microenvironment, epigenetic regulation of aberrant gene

expression, and enhancement of immune cell functions. This should provide

a rationale for the effective and meaningful clinical implementation of CAP. As

discussed here, despite its potential, CAP faces different clinical limitations

associated with the current CAP treatment modalities: direct exposure of

cancerous cells to plasma, and indirect treatment through injection of

plasma-treated liquids in the tumor. To this end, a novel modality is proposed:

plasma-treated hydrogels (PTHs) that can not only help overcome some of the

clinical limitations but also offer a convenient platform for combining CAP

with existing drugs to improve therapeutic responses and contribute to the

clinical translation of CAP. Finally, by integrating expertise in biomaterials and

plasma medicine, practical considerations and prospective for the

development of PTHs are offered.
