Reduces side effects
Since it is only targeted to strengthen the immune system, Immunotherapy tends to have lesser side effects.
Delays cancer progression
The immune system becomes stronger to identify and destroy cancer cells, so it detects cancer at an early stage and improves chances of survival.
Prevents recurrence
The immune system recognizes and attacks cancer that recurs in our bodies, which delays its progression, giving you time to retreat before it’s too late.
Improves quality of life
Immunotherapy helps to reduce pain and suffering in terminal stage patients. It improves quality life significantly. A large number of patients show prolongation of life and better clinical outcomes.
Personalised and Targeted Cancer Immunotherapy.
• Immunotherapy is considered As Fourth Modality of Cancer Treatment After Surgery, Chemotherapy And Radio Therapy.
• This technique uses immune cells (Type of Antigen Presenting Cells of Immune System) which activate the immune system to combat cancerous process.
• Nobel Prize in Medicine 2011 – Dr. Ralph Steinmann for Discovery of Dendritic cells and its role in tumour immunology.
• It is a personalized cancer treatment plan which is made by patient’s own white blood cells collected from peripheral blood.
• We extract the immune cells, transform them into cancer fighting cells and transplant them into the same patient. These immune cells then activate the immune system to fight against the tumour.
