Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy is a broad category of anti-cancer therapies that use the body’s immune system to fight cancer cells. These cells are different from normal cells, in that they do not die normally. These abnormal cells frequently change or mutate, to evade the immune system. Immunotherapy drugs are designed to alert the immune system about these mutated cells so it can locate and destroy them.  Cancer is being treated by immunotherapy. Immunotherapies designed to elicit or amplify an immune response are classified as activation immunotherapies, while immunotherapies are classified as suppression immunotherapies. Immunomodulatory regimens often have fewer side effects than existing drugs, including less potential for creating resistance in microbial disease. These are the active agents of immunotherapy.
