How Immunotherapy Cancer Treatment Works

Immunotherapy is a newer form of cancer treatment that uses the patient's immune system to fight cancer. This treatment uses materials created by the body or within a laboratory to help boost or restore the immune system's function so that it can better detect and fight the cancer.
