Patients are beginning to benefit from antibody based, cellular and
vaccine approaches that are effective against genetically diverse
and therapy-resistance cancers. BCG immunotherapy is now being used
as a first line treatment for human bladder cancer and the
introduction of prophylactic vaccination against Hepatitis B and
HPV cancers is starting to show positive results. Following recent
FDA approval for a vaccination against prostate cancer, and
optimistic results in clinical trials for a vaccine targeting
cancer antigens in lung cancer, cancer immunotherapy is now
significantly impacting patient clinical management. Tumor
Immunology and Immunotherapy provides an up-to-date and
comprehensive account of cancer immunity and immunotherapy. It
discusses our adaptive and innate immunity to cancer, the
mechanisms underpinning our immune response, current approaches to
cancer immunotherapy, and how tumour and host responses can
circumvent effective anti-cancer immunity. The book examines recent
results, publications and current areas of interest including
'immune editing' and the specific issues that are affecting the
research and development of vaccines, providing insight into how
these problems may be overcome, as viewed by world leaders in the
field. Tumor Immunology and Immunotherapy will appeal to clinicians
working in oncology and cancer immunotherapy, and research
scientists including PhD and masters students, post-doctoral
researchers and senior investigators.
