Immunotherapy: Harnessing the Body’s Own Healing Power to Fight Cancer
One of the most promising tools in an oncologist’s toolbox is immunotherapy. This treatment boosts the body’s own immune system so it can effectively destroy cancer cells. Immunotherapy has proven very effective in certain cancers, such as some melanomas and lung tumors. While immunotherapy is still unavailable at many community hospitals, it has been prescribed at MarinHealth Medical Center for several years, with encouraging results.
