About this title

Synopsis

Easy to follow and medical jargon friendly, the book by Dr. Liu-Sullivan (with Foreword by Dr. Garippa of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, MSKCC) guides readers through a journey on cancer basics, why it is tough to treat, and how cancer immunotherapy that unleashes patient inner cancer-combatting immune power has bestowed an inspirational ray of hope for cancer patients and their loved ones. A collection of 101 storied essays accompanied by context-rich images, Understanding Cancer Immunotherapy: A Guide for Students, Patients, and Caretakers serves as a go-to source for gaining a good understanding of the intricate facets of cancer, the constant tug-of-war between host immune cells and cancer counterparts, and how the advent of cancer immunotherapy has offered a paradigm shift in cancer care.

Understanding Cancer Immunotherapy: A Guide for Students, Patients, and Caregivers helps readers understand the ins and out of cancer immunotherapy. This book contains a chronology, an introduction, an extensive bibliography, and a dictionary section. Understanding Cancer Immunotherapy covers cancer-devouring viral therapy, tumor-infiltrating immune therapy, cytokine therapy, modified dendritic cell therapy, engineered T cell therapy, cancer preventive vaccines, and cancer therapeutic vaccines, companion topics on cancer basics, immunology fundamentals, and cancer risk reduction.
