Immunotherapy क्या होती है? | Can Immunotherapy Cure Cancer? | Dr Praveen Kammar, Mumbai
Hello friends, I am Dr Praveen Kammar, a cancer surgeon specializing in digestive system cancers and gynecological cancers. In our earlier videos, we explored how cancer begins, spreads, and the role of the immune system.
Today, we take it further and understand how cancer immunotherapy treatment boosts your immune system to fight cancer cells.
Cancer develops when abnormal cells with genetic mutations escape immune surveillance. Normally, our immune system (natural killer cells, T-cells) destroys such cells. But tumors evolve ways to hide or suppress immunity. Immunotherapy equips your immune system with the tools to recognize and attack cancer.
How cancer cells evade immunity:
Hiding their identity (receptor loss)
Suppressing immune response
Activating checkpoints on T-cells (blocked by checkpoint inhibitors)
Creating a hostile tumor environment
Overpowering by rapid growth and large numbers
Types of Cancer Immunotherapy:
Monoclonal Antibodies: Artificial antibodies targeting cancer cells.
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: Block checkpoint receptors to reactivate T-cells.
CAR T-Cell Therapy: Genetically modified T-cells designed to kill cancer.
Cancer Vaccines: Prepare the immune system to recognize cancer.
Cytokine Therapy: Immune chemicals used to control cancer.
Why it matters: Immunotherapy is one of the most advanced approaches in modern oncology. It can be used in specific cancers and stages, often with significant benefits.
Have questions about Immunotherapy? Write them in the comments. In upcoming videos, we will discuss each type in detail.
