INTRODUCTION The terms immunotherapy of cancer and biotherapy of cancer have been used interchangeably in the past. Strictly speaking, biotherapy or biological therapy is more appropriate and is now considered the 4th modality of cancer therapy. It can be effective when used alone or in combination ...
This review summarises the evolution of recent major advances in cancer immunotherapy, using metastatic melanoma as a model. The first true clinical progress with immunotherapy developed from the application of recombinant DNA technology for the large scale production of immunostimulant cytokines. Clinical...
treatment method for melanoma, lung, bladder, and hereditary colon cancer, breast cancer (BC) remains one of the tumors yet to experience the cellular immunology explosion despite the fact that heavy lymphocyte responses in breast tumors improve response to therapy and can predict for long-term ...

Q2:What are some of the significant breakthroughs in liver cancer research that have been made in recent years? How have these breakthroughs impacted clinical practice? Tim Meyer:I guess the major advances in the past few years have been in systemic therapy. So, for many years, we had tyrosi...
Adoptive T cell therapy Therapeutic vaccines Immune system modulators Who needs it? Side effects Clinical trials Outlook Immunotherapy is a type of drug treatment that may benefit people with certain kinds of lung cancer. The immune system defends the body from unwanted invaders, including cancer cell...
when they're metastatic, then there is combination of chemotherapy drugs with immunotherapy, or a combination of two immunotherapy drugs together, or targeted therapies for those patients that their tumors have a particular mutation that we can match to that drug that can act on the cancer cell....
日前,寻百会生物(GV20 Therapeutics)在《细胞》(Cell)杂志上发表了一篇题为“IGSF8 is an innate immune checkpoint and cancer immunotherapy target”的文章。这项研究揭示了一个“抗癌”新靶点——一种新型的免疫检查点IGSF8。寻百会生物的联合创始人...
When it comes to melanoma, as well as kidney and lung cancer, a new kind of drug that blocks a protein called PD-1 has energized the field of research. "PD-1 is arguably the most exciting breakthrough in cancer therapy in a decade," said Mark Schoenebaum, an analyst with ISI Group....
To test that the GO chip could monitor lung cancer treatments, the researchers used it to collect cancer cells from the blood of 26 patients receiving both chemotherapy and immunotherapy for stage 3lung cancer. The researchers took samples before cancer treatment and after the patients' first, fou...
