Description
· Provides a comprehensive update on the state of the art in cancer
immunology
· Describes the most promising therapeutic concepts, with coverage of
combination therapies and personalized medicine
· Discusses the role of biomarkers in guiding the clinical development
of new treatment approaches
This book provides a comprehensive update on the state of the art in cancer
immunology, which has rapidly evolved from a field of clinical research into
an established discipline of oncology. The key recent developments in immuno-oncology
are all covered, from the ever-changing immunological and regulatory frameworks
to the most promising therapeutic concepts. Themes include combination therapies
and personalized medicine, as well as identification of biomarkers to guide
the clinical development of new approaches and to pinpoint the optimal treatment
for each patient. The book acknowledges the continuing dynamic nature of the
field as reflected in the development of next-generation immunotherapies that
are already in clinical testing.
Cancer Immunotherapy Meets Oncology is dedicated to the lifetime achievements of Christoph Huber, founder and chair of the Association for Cancer Immunotherapy (CIMT). It is also a tribute to those researchers and clinicians who are striving to develop novel diagnostics and tailored immunotherapies for the benefit of cancer patients.
