How Have Immunotherapies Revolutionized Treatment?
Immunotherapy has emerged as a game-changer in cancer treatment. Drugs like Checkpoint Inhibitors (e.g., Pembrolizumab) work by unleashing the body's immune system to fight cancer. These therapies have shown remarkable success in treating cancers like melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer. Additionally, CAR T-cell therapy involves modifying a patient's T-cells to attack cancer, offering hope for otherwise untreatable blood cancers.
