Immunotherapy utilizes the body's own immune system to fight cancer and can help reduce treatment-related side effects. Specifically, the main objectives of immunotherapy are to:
• Suppress the processes that promote cancer cell growth
• Help the immune system recognize cancer cells
• Promote the body's natural ability to repair or replace normal cells damaged during cancer treatment
Immunotherapy can also be combined with other treatment methods, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.
