Core Tip	The significant role of autophagy in mainta­ining the balance of tumorigenesis and cancer cell death remains controversial. The last decade grown body of evi­dence support the notion that autophagy is a promising target for many malignant tumors, including colorectal cancer (CRC). A novel therapeutic approach which could involve autophagy inhibitors or immunotherapy plus che­motherapeutic drugs could open a new field for treating patients with CRC.
