ImmunotherapyImmunotherapy has revolutionized the management of patients with cancer, achieving better clinical results with limited side effects compared with conventional therapies, but in a limited subset of patients. Among these approaches, immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy directly counteracts ...
Immunotherapy is a promising new form of cancer treatment, but the supercharged immune cells it employs can become exhausted in the fight. Researchers in Japan have found a way to keep them going for longer, by rejuvenating them with stem cells.
Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment, providing new hope for cancers once deemed incurable by harnessing the immune system to fight the disease. However, many cancers can evade immune attacks, leading to resistance against these treatments. Researchers led by Anna Obenauf at the IMP have id...
“Roughly one in five cancer patients respond to checkpoint blocking antibodies. What’s exciting is that half of those have responses that last for many years,” says Drew Pardoll, director of Bloomberg~Kimmel Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at the John...
Aiming to increase efficacy of surgical solutions and patient outcome, immunotherapy for rare cancers is becoming a more viable option, providing much-needed hope and treatments for patients. With this study and others, immunotherapy is poised to transform rare cancer treatment and provide hope for ...
improves the function of immune system cells along with all other cells in the body. This will enable the immune system to better fight cancer. Also, the instructions direct the immune system to eliminate cancer from the body. These instructions activate the immune system response against cancer....
