Immunotherapy is a type of treatment against cancer by activating or suppressing a patient’s own immune system. There are several types of immunotherapies, including monoclonal antibodies, T-cell transfer therapy, non-specific immunotherapies, oncolytic virus therapy, and treatment vaccines. These therapies can be used throughout different stages of cancer care, from metastatic to adjuvant phases.
