For now, the 5-year survival rate of children with Wilms tumor is about 90%. It is difficult to make further progress simply by the improvement of the existing treatments (multi-modal therapy). Therefore, targeted therapy and immunotherapy which have high accuracy and few side effects began to be considered for the treatment of Wilms tumor. At present, though targeted therapy and immunotherapy are rarely used in the treatment of Wilms tumor except in clinical trials, there are dozens of clinical trials research them around the world. The sites in targeted therapy research are mainly focused on insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) pathway, anti-angiogenesis, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway, and some miRNAs, etc. And there are three types of study in Wilms tumor immunotherapy, which are inhibition of the COX-2 pathway, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy, and multi-tumor associated antigen (TAA)-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) therapy. Among them, the phase I clinical trial of multi-TAA-specific CTL (MTAA-CTL) therapy has been completed, and the results are very satisfactory. In this narrative review, we review the basic research and relevant clinical research on targeted therapy and immunotherapy for Wilms tumor. Anti-tumor targeted therapies focus on the specific characteristics of tumor cells, which are essential for the initiation and maintenance of tumors. Because of their specificity, targeted therapies generally cause fewer side effects than chemotherapy and radiotherapy (6) . In terms of action mechanism, the current research on targeted drugs is mainly focused on the following four aspects. The IGF2 signaling pathway is closely related to the development of Wilms tumor, and the combination of upregulated IGF2 gene expression and Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) gene ablation leads to Wilms tumor (7) . There are two proven reasons for the overexpression of IGF2. First, the loss of DIS3L2 gene function leads to the transcriptional activation of IGF2/H19 site in primary nephron progenitor cells, which further leads to the overexpression of IGF2 in WT (8) . Second, the mutation of some miRNAs (such as miR- 16 and miR-34) in Wilms tumor leads to inhibition of the IGF2 regulator PLAG1, and overexpression of PLAG1 enhances the expression levels of IGF2 (9) . For the IGF2 pathway, IGF1R, the IGF2 receptor, is currently considered the most feasible therapeutic target due to its overexpression and its role in the occurrence and growth of cancer. The IGF2 signaling pathway is closely associated to the development of Wilms tumor, and IGF2 receptor IGF1R is one of the most feasible therapeutic targets. The rapid growth and development of tumors require intensive angiogenesis and rapid proliferation, while nontumor sites have slow or no proliferation of blood vessels. Therefore, angiogenesis has an important role in the development and metastasis of tumors and inhibiting this process will obviously prevent the development and spread of tumor tissues. The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/ vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) pathway is the most commonly targeted pathway in antiangiogenic therapy. VEGF is a known factor that induces angiogenesis. Anti-angiogenic therapy targeting VEGFR is widely used in cancer therapy. Among them, VEGF-A is the most thoroughly studied factor inducing endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis (11) . VEGF-A expression in the serum and tissues of Wilms tumor patients is related to poor prognosis, which lays a theoretical foundation for antiangiogenesis therapy (12) . VEGF-A regulates angiogenesis and vascular permeability by activating two receptors, VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 (13) . Apatinib is a small molecule anti-angiogenic agent that selectively binds to and inhibits the kinase activity of VEGFR-2, thereby reducing VEGFmediated migration and proliferation of tumor endothelial cells and thus reducing tumor microvascular density and inhibiting the growth of Wilms tumor. Currently, bevacizumab, AZD2171, and other VEGF/VEGFR pathway inhibitors are on the market or are in clinical trials (12) . There may also be other targeted pathways for antiangiogenesis therapy. VEGF is overexpressed in Wilms tumor, but the expressed subtype of VEGF is determined by the shear mode of the precursor of VEGF. Wilms tumor suppressor 1 (WT1) activates serine/arginine-rich proteinspecific splicing factor kinase (SRPK1) and indirect serine/ arginine-rich splicing factor 1 (SRSF1) activity in tumor vascular endothelial cells, thereby inducing the expression of the pro-angiogenic subtype of VEGF. Specific knockout of WT1 can reduce the expression of SRPK1 and SRSF1 endothelial cells, thereby inducing the expression of VEGF anti-angiogenic subtype VEGF120 (11) . Therefore, WT1 could be a potential target in anti-angiogenesis therapy. Antiangiogenic therapy, however, can lead to rashes, elevated lipases, anorexia, blood clots, and pneumothorax. Pneumothorax is the most serious complication of antiangiogenic therapy in children with Wilms tumor and can even be life-threatening (14) . Therefore, the risk of pneumothorax should be evaluated during antiangiogenic therapy. The PI3K/AKT signaling pathway has a critical role in tumor development. This pathway can be activated by cell surface receptors (such as tyrosine kinase receptors), G-protein coupled receptors, and oncogenes expression product (such as Ras superfamily), and activated PI3K can catalyze the conversion of phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-diphosphate to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate, thereby activating AKT. AKT signaling is transmitted to a variety of downstream effectors, including mammalian target rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), to regulate various cellular processes. When activated abnormally, this pathway may be involved in the regulation of proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of Wilms tumor cells (15) . In terms of tumor therapy, a variety of inhibitors such as buparlisib have been developed against PI3K and its subtypes, AKT, mTOR and other pathway proteins. As the most advanced inhibitor targeting PI3K and its subtypes, buparlisib is applied to human tumor cell lines with PI3K pathway changes, which can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells and promote the apoptosis of tumor cells. In mice transplanted with PIK3CA mutations, buparlisib can significantly inhibit tumor growth and even cause tumor regression. However, buparlisib is more toxic, so studies on it have focused on reducing toxicity. Currently, only mTORC1 allosteric inhibitors such as everolimus and temsirolimus are approved for clinical use (15) . Inhibition of this pathway can not only directly inhibit the pathway proteins, but also target the regulatory factors of the pathway proteins and the upstream activating genes of the pathway. The regulatory factors that have been proven to be potential target sites are PTEN/PTEN pseudogene (PTENP1) (16) , and the activation gene is KRAS (17) . PTEN is a negative regulator of PI3K. By dephosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate at the d3 position of the inositol ring, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-diphosphate is formed to directly antagonize the effect of PI3K. The loss or inactivation of PTEN leads to overactivation of RTK/PI3K/ AKT signal transduction, which leads to tumorigenesis. PTENP1 transcription products can competitively bind to PTEN mRNA to block its expressed miRNA, and inhibition of PTENP1 transcription has been experimentally demonstrated to reduce PTEN expression (16) . RAS is a proto-oncogene. In the Wilms tumor cells, RAS mutations can activate the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway together with β-catenin, thus promoting the proliferation, migration and invasion of the Wilms tumor cells, as well as tumor growth and lung metastasis (17) . miRNA is a small single-stranded non-coding RNA that can regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by binding to mRNA 3'UTR to inhibit protein translation or promote mRNA degradation. miRNA expression profiles of different subtypes of Wilms tumor cell lines and normal renal tissue cell lines were constructed and analyzed by miRNA microarray technology and quantitative reversetranscription PCR. The results showed that miRNA expression in the two cell types was significantly different (18) (19) (20) (21) . Subsequent studies have found that miRNAs can regulate the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis of Wilms tumor cells by regulating the expression of pathway proteins in cell signaling pathways, and thus play an important role in the occurrence and development of Wilms tumor. Therefore, miRNAs can be used as potential target sites and even as targeted drugs for targeted therapy of Wilms tumor (22) (23) (24) (25) (26) (27) (28) . Currently, seven miRNAs have been confirmed to have an important role in the occurrence and development of Wilms tumor, including miR-891b (22) , miR-21 (23), miR-19b (24) , miR-483-3p (25) , miR-140-5p (26) , miR-613 (27) , and miR-572 (28) . Their expression imbalance and regulated cell signaling channels in Wilms tumor cells are shown in Table 1 . miR -21, miR-19b, miR-483-3p , and miR-891b can positively regulate the PI3K/AKT pathway, promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion of Wilms tumor cells, and inhibit their apoptosis, but their regulatory mechanisms may be different (22) . (26) . Therefore, miR-613 and miR-140-5p can not only be used as therapeutic target sites, but also be directly used as targeted drugs, which need to be verified by drug experiments. Unfortunately, due to the lack of research on the role of miRNAs in the occurrence and development of Wilms tumor, no drugs targeting this site have been investigated in clinical trials. However, research has found that salidroside can be adjusted by miR-891b to inhibit the NF-κB and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathways, thereby inhibiting the proliferation and metastasis of Wilms tumor cells, and thus several studies have attempted to elucidate the pharmacological action of rhodiola glucoside as a potential therapy (22) . In addition to the target sites mentioned above, there are also some potential target sites, such as RECK gene (29), KCNQ1OT1 gene (30), nerve cell adhesion molecule (31), hypoxia-inducing factor-1 (32), LINC00473 (33), etc. These potential targeting sites provide some new directions for future drug development. Anti-tumor immunotherapy is a treatment method to control and eliminate tumor cells by restarting and maintaining the tumor-immune cycle and restoring or even enhancing the normal anti-tumor immune response of the body (34) . Both tumor immunotherapy and targeted therapy can target a specific protein, but immunotherapy can stimulate and enhance the immune capacity of the body through this target. Currently, two main methods are applied in immunotherapy against Wilms tumor: inhibition of the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathway and adoptive cellular immunotherapy. COX-2, one of the two isoenzymes of prostaglandin, is robustly expressed in the inflammatory microenvironment of Wilms tumor (35) . A model of Wilms tumor in mice was previously established. WT1 ablation and IGF2 upregulation were used to stimulate the Wilms tumor microenvironment in the mouse model, and the expression of COX-2 pathway components in the mouse model was observed and their roles were analyzed. Immunohistochemistry showed that COX-2 pathway components, such as COX-2, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, and mitogen-activated protein kinase, were highly expressed in the mouse models. Flow cytometry analysis revealed increased infiltration of immunosuppressive immune cells such as regulatory dendritic cells and regulatory T cells in the tumor. Through real-time quantitative PCR studies, immunosuppressive cytokines such as interleukin-10 and transforming growth factor-β were found to be upregulated in the mouse model, and the expression of chemokines such as chemokine-CC motif-receptor-5 and C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 that induce the infiltration of these immunosuppressive immune cells was also upregulated. It can be inferred from the above evidence that the COX-2 pathway has an important function in the production and transport of immunosuppressive immune cells, which participate in the formation of the tumor immune microenvironment of Wilms tumor and play an important role in tumor immune escape. Therefore, targeting COX-2 can inhibit tumor immune escape (36) . CAR-T cell therapy refers to the use of gene modification technology (CRISPR/Cas9) to transfer genetic material with specific antigen recognition domains and T cell activation signals into T cells (CD8+ T cells), so that T cells can be directly combined with specific antigens on the surface of tumor cells to be activated to treat tumors (37, 38) . In the past decades, CAR has undergone four generations of structure. In the first generation of CAR, there is only the activation signal from the CD3ζ chain. When the scFv recognizes the tumor associated antigen (TAA), the signal is transferred into the T cell, and the CD3ζ signal triggers the activation of T cells. In the second and third generation of CAR, one or two costimulatory signals were added to respectively to enhance the proliferation of T cells, tumor cell killing, and cytokine secretion (IL-2, TNF, IFN−, etc.) (39) (40) (41) . The fourth generation of CAR-T cell contains an transcriptional response element of nuclear factor of activated T cells, which enables CAR-T cells to secrete specific cytokines (mainly IL-12 at present) in the tumor area, thus modifying the tumor microenvironment, recruiting and activating other immune cells for immune response (41, 42) . However, overactivity of CAR-T cells is likely to cause cytokine release syndrome, and the duration of CAR-T cells in vivo is relatively short (43) . Wu et al. found that CD3ε can recruit inhibitory signal molecules Csk, through its immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif signal, leading to impaired signaling of the CD3ζ/ Zap70/Plcγ1 axis and subsequent reduction of cytokines; and recruit p85 through its basic residue rich sequence signal motif, which promotes AKT signal transduction and CAR-T persistence; the fifth generation CAR-T has begun to form (44) . There are some specific targets such as CD19, CD22 and CD123 (only in cancer cells but not in normal cells) in blood cancer, these targets can lead CAR-T cells to find and destroy cancer cells (45) . Therefore, CAR-T cell therapy is effective in blood cancer. At present, CD19 CAR-T cell therapy has been approved by FDA to be used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (46) . However, there is no such targets in Wilms tumor (47, 48) , and cytolytic CD8+ T cells are confined to intravascular circulation (49) . Therefore, the application of CAR-T cell therapy in Wilms tumor is still in clinical trials. The existing clinical trials are as follows: Glypican-3 (GPC3) is the first proposed target for CAR-T cell therapy of Wilms tumor. GPC3 is a heparan sulfate proteoglycan on the cell surface, which is anchored to the cytoplasmic membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol and can interact with a variety of regulatory proteins important for cell growth and differentiation, including Wnt, Hedgehog and fibroblast growth factor (50) . The transcriptional and proteomic expression of GPC3 in Wilms tumor was significantly higher than that in adult renal tumor and normal renal tissue. Combined with the results of three studies evaluating the expression of GPC3 in nephroblastoma, 50/87 (58%) cases showed GPC3 expression, and somatic tumor mutations of GPC3 were even found in some Wilms tumors (51, 52) . Since the expression of GPC3 in Wilms tumors is not lower than in hepatoblastoma (131/135, 97%) (51), the existing GPC3 CAR-T cell immunotherapy for pediatric solid tumors (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04377932) only recruits hepatoblastoma patients, while Wilms tumor patients are included in the scope of recruitment in the future. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is another target that may be suitable for CAR-T cell therapy of Wilms tumor, which binds to epidermal growth factor to induce activation of receptor-related tyrosine kinases and ultimately promotes DNA synthesis, proliferation and differentiation of target cells (53) . Shuai-Jun Dong, master of Zhengzhou University, performed HE staining on 35 cases of Wilms tumor, 14 cases of peritumoral renal tissue and 8 cases of normal renal tissue. It was found that the positive rate of EGFR was 62.86% in nephroblastoma and 28.57% in peritumoral renal tissue, and no expression in 8 cases of normal renal tissue (54) . Given the high specificity of EGFR in Wilms tumor, clinical trial of EGFR806 CART cell therapy for recurrent/refractory solid tumors in children and young people (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03618381) recruited Wilms tumor patients at the initial stage, and the first phase of the trial is expected to end in June, 2021. The positive rate of the above targets in Wilms tumor is about 60%, which is not enough to label all tumor tissues, so the application of CAR-T cell therapy in Wilms tumor patients progressed slowly. A recent breakthrough by the Majzner team at Stanford University offers hope to CAR-T cell therapy for Wilms tumor. The Majzner team screened samples from 388 children's tumors and found that 325 (84%) were positive for B7-H3, 70% of which showed high intensity staining for 2+ or 3+. All the 12 Wilms tumor specimens were stained with high intensity (2+ or 3+) (55 MTAA-CTL is one of the fifth generation CTL cell therapy, which is characterized by the directional expansion of MHC-restricted CD8+ NK-T cells while ensuring the expansion of non-MHC-restricted CTL cells, so that the ratio of MHC-restricted CD8+ CTL cells in cellular products can reach 60-70%. The two kinds of cells work together to improve the efficiency of killing tumor cells. Compared with CAR-T cell therapy, which can only target single surface antigen, MTAA-CTL cell therapy can extract dendritic cells from peripheral blood monocytes and coculture with immune cells after being processed with multiple tumor antigens (adding related antigens according to the tumor of the patient: one is the antigen extracted from the patient's blood, the other is the broad-spectrum antigen peculiar to the cancer). So, acquired CTLs can target a variety of surface antigens. The obtained DC-CTL cells were infused intravenously, which could effectively and specifically recognize and kill tumor cells in vivo (56) . Currently, MTAA-CTL therapy for the treatment of recurrent and refractory solid tumors has begun clinical trials, of which the phase I trial has been completed (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02789228). In this experiment, three kinds of targeted TAAs, WT1, PRAME and survivin, which are specifically expressed or overexpressed in tumor cells, are selected to make MTAA-CTL attack tumor cells without harming healthy tissue. The recruited patients included 9 Wilms tumor patients (9/18), of whom 7 patients with Wilms tumor were treated with TAA-Ts infusion. In terms of safety, the experiment results showed that all Wilms tumor patients had no doselimited toxicity, no infusion-related adverse events and treatment-related adverse events, so the safety of MTAA-CTL therapy can be guaranteed. In terms of therapeutic efficacy, of the 15 assessable patients, 11 (73%) were defined as responders because their condition was stable or improved within 45 days after infusion of TAA-Ts. After initial TAA-Ts treatment, 6 responders still had no progress, with a median of 13.9 months (range, 4.1 to 19.9 months). Patients who received the highest dose showed the best clinical results, with a progression-free survival rate of 73% at 6 months after TAA-T injection, compared with 38% at 6 months after prior treatment. The diffusion of antigens and the decrease of tumor-associated antigens in circulation were observed by digital droplet polymerase chain reaction after TAA-T infusion. In this clinical trial, Wilms patients accounted for 50%, so it is reasonable to think that MTAA-CTL is a promising new treatment for Wilms tumor patients, but the specific effect still needs to be verified by clinical trials specifically for Wilms tumor patients (57) . Immunotherapy is rarely used in Wilms tumor, and the current research is still at the experimentation stage. However, recent research suggests that there is an immunologically involved tumor microenvironment in Wilms tumor, which means that it may be sensitive to immunotherapy (58) . This may be the focus of future research in this area. In an ideal world where financial resources and time is enough, drug development efforts would be focused on developing pediatric tumor-specific drugs. However, few drugs have been developed specifically for childhood tumors due to a small market for a rare childhood disease. So far, almost all clinical trials opened for Wilms tumor exploit known drugs targeting common pathways which are dysregulated in other adulthood cancers (59) . The development of single-cell sequencing technology may provide great convenience for finding this dysregulated pathway. Immunotherapy is similar to targeted therapy. Drug development efforts focused on the development of pediatric solid tumor-specific drugs, rather than Wilms tumor-specific drugs (from https://clinicaltrials. gov/). Compared with targeted therapy in other aspects, the benefits of immunotherapy are more obvious. It not only has the advantages of high precision and low side effects compared with targeted therapy but can also be discontinued during the treatment process without drug dependence (60) . At the same time, immunotherapy has less stringent requirements regarding the target (61) . At present, CAR-T cell therapy mainly uses the second and third generation of CAR-T cells (43) . With the application of the fourth generation CAR-T cells in tumor therapy, it is believed that it will have a better future (62) . In the future, targeted therapy and immunotherapy may become the two major adjuvant treatments for postoperative Wilms tumor.
