Cancer immunotherapy works by retraining the immune system to detect and destroy tumor cells that have developed invisibility to natural immunosurveillance.

“you can retrain your immune system to be able to see that invisible tumor and if you can do that with immunotherapy then now you've got a way to destroy a tumor that doesn't involve chemo that doesn't involve radiation but basically uses your own immune system to fight Cancers”

Immunotherapy is a highly promising and effective approach to treating cancer because of its unique selectivity and ability to specifically target cancer cells without damaging healthy tissue.

“it's the Exquisite sensitivity and specificity of the immune reaction that I think makes it such a seductively interesting approach to trying to develop new cancer treatments”
