Immunotherapy for Prostrate Cancer, present availability and on going trials
Systemic Immunotherapy treatment for cancer looks promising and is currently the most preferred treatments since 2010. And prostrate cancer seems to be in the forefront with approved drugs by the FDA. Today there are several immune based cancer treatments available, albeit extending survivability by seven or so months. Currently there are three approaches in Immunotherapy for prostrate cancer. Therapeutic cancer vaccines, Checkpoint inhibitors/immune modulators and Adoptive T cell therapies.
Hopefully more trials will come to its end periods with successful results sooner than later. Let us continue to keep fit and healthy , until full fledged immunotherapies are readily available.
Read the latest report on Immunotherapies for prostrate cancer as at September 2014 here:
