متن کاملImmunotherapy for Lung Cancers
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Although treatment methods in surgery, irradiation, and chemotherapy have improved, prognosis remains unsatisfactory and developing new therapeutic strategies is still an urgent demand. Immunotherapy is a novel therapeutic approach wherein activated immune cells can specifically kill tumor cells by recognition of tumor-associa...
متن کاملNonmyeloablative allogeneic immunotherapy for solid tumors.
Over the past decade, considerable advances have been made in the field of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Recognition that transplanted donor immune cells can cure patients with leukemia has led to the development of nonmyeloablative or "low-intensity" conditioning regimens, which have expanded the application of allogeneic transplantation to a growing number of hematologic...
