In the original version of this paper, the upper right part of Fig. 1 (p. 117) was shown as “Primary resistance”. However, this is to be corrected as “Adaptive resistance”. Also, the lower right part of Fig. 1 was shown as “Adaptive resistance”. However, this is to be corrected as “Primary resistance”. Figure 1 is to be corrected as follows:

Modification of the cancer immunoediting hypothesis. The relationship between cancer cells and the immune system is divided into three phases: elimination phase, equilibrium phase, and escape phase. Immune selection (primary resistance) and immune escape (adaptive resistance), which are involved in the equilibrium and escape phases of cancer immune editing, become activated, leading to carcinogenesis. In humans, these mechanisms are thought to operate in overlapping rather than sequential order.
