Immunotherapy

What is Immunotherapy?

IMMUNOTHERAPY is a type of cancer treatment uses substances made by the body or in a laboratory to boost the immune system and help the body find and destroy cancer cells Helps to treat many different types of cancer.

It can be used alone or in combination with chemotherapy and/or other cancer treatments. Immunotherapy is a type of biological therapy.

Cancer immunotherapy comes in a variety of forms, including targeted antibodies, cancer vaccines, adoptive cell transfer, tumor-infecting viruses, cytokines, and adjuvants.

Some immunotherapy treatments use genetic engineering to enhance immune cells cancer-fighting capabilities and may be referred to as gene therapies.

Many immunotherapy treatments for preventing, managing, or treating different cancers can also be used in combination with chemotherapy, radiation or targeted therapies to improve their effectiveness.

Forms of cancer immunotherapy include:

    • Immune checkpoint inhibitorss
    • T-cell transfer therapy
    • Monoclonal antibodies
    • Cytokines
    • Cancer vaccines
    • Immune system modulators

Few Side Effects of Immunotherapy

  • Fatigue
  • Skin rashes, itching
  • Diarrhea or colitis
  • Cough, shortness of breath
  • Hormone changes

Types of Immunotherapy

  • Immune checkpoint inhibitors
  • Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs)
  • Cytokine therapy
  • Adoptive cell transfer (CAR-T cell therapy)

Why Immunotherapy is Preferred?

  • Immunotherapy specifically targets cancer cells, minimizing harm to healthy cells and reducing side effects compared to chemotherapy and radiation.
  • It offers the possibility for long-term control of cancer.
  • Immunotherapy can “train” the immune system to remember cancer cells, creating “immunomemory.”
  • This “immunomemory” may result in longer-lasting and potentially permanent protection against cancer recurrence.

Why Immunotherapy is Preferred?

  • Training your immune system so it can do more to find and kill cancer cells.
  • Helping your body produce cancer-fighting immune cells that effectively locate and destroy cancer cells.
