Immunoterapia: quando funziona davvero?

Not all tumors are the same. Some are called "hot" tumors: the immune system recognizes and attacks them. Immunotherapy is most effective against these tumors. 👉 "Hot" tumors: ✔️ lung ✔️ melanoma ✔️ bladder ✔️ kidney ✔️ head and neck Others, however, are "cold": they manage to evade the immune system, as in the case of the pancreas and prostate. 🔬 The research challenge is clear: making "cold" tumors visible. But how? Giovanni Blandino, Scientific Director of the Regina Elena Hospital, was a guest on TG2 Medicina 33: "Immunotherapy has changed the treatment of cancer, especially metastatic forms. But today the goal is even more ambitious: ✔️ increase efficacy ✔️ reduce toxicity ✔️ improve quality of life."
