Immunotherapy

      What is Immunotherapy?

      Immunotherapy is an innovative cancer treatment that harnesses the body’s own immune system to detect, attack, and destroy cancer cells. Unlike conventional therapies, immunotherapy strengthens or modifies the immune response, offering a targeted approach to fight cancer while minimizing harm to healthy tissues.

      How Immunotherapy Works?

      Immunotherapy works by boosting the immune system or enhancing its ability to recognize cancer cells as harmful. The main types of immunotherapy include:

      • Checkpoint Inhibitors: Block proteins that prevent immune cells from attacking cancer
      • CAR-T Cell Therapy: Genetically modifies a patient’s T-cells to target cancer cells
      • Monoclonal Antibodies: Bind to specific targets on cancer cells, marking them for immune destruction
      • Cancer Vaccines: Stimulate the immune system to recognize and attack tumor cells
