How Are Immunotherapies Changing Cancer Treatment?
Immunotherapies are a groundbreaking class of treatments that harness the body's immune system to fight cancer. Checkpoint inhibitors block proteins that prevent the immune system from attacking cancer cells. CAR-T cell therapy involves modifying a patient's T cells to better recognize and destroy cancer cells. These therapies have shown remarkable success in treating specific cancers, such as melanoma and certain types of lymphoma.
