How has immunotherapy changed the landscape of cancer treatment?
Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment by harnessing the body's immune system to fight cancer cells. Checkpoint inhibitors, such as PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, have shown remarkable success in treating various types of cancer, including melanoma and lung cancer. Another exciting development is CAR-T cell therapy, where a patient's T cells are genetically modified to better recognize and attack cancer cells. These therapies have provided hope for patients with cancers that were previously considered untreatable.
