Starting by introducing concepts of modern immunology, the clinical applications of immunotherapy are then discussed. The reader will learn about the three broad classes of immune therapeutic agents: cell-based treatment; antibody therapy; cytokine application and the key effector cells and mechanisms which might cause tumour rejection. The reverse side of this equation, the genetic and molecular mechanisms which the tumour can use to escape immune control and regulation, is also discussed. Through reviewing the most up-to-date evidence, this volume provides an overview of the important scientific lessons learned from past failure of immunotherapeutics in the clinic and highlights more positive recent data, coupled to practical guidelines for clinical usage. Written by a team of worldwide experts, this is an indispensable guide for medical oncologists, surgical oncologists, radiation therapists, pharmacists, oncology nurse specialists. . 000778768 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 18, 2017). 000778768 650_0 $$aGastrointestinal system$$xCancer$$xImmunotherapy. 000778768 7001_ $$aKerr, David,$$eeditor. 000778768 7001_ $$aJohnson, Rebecca,$$eeditor 000778768 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319430614 000778768 852__ $$bebk 000778768 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-43063-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000778768 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:778768$$pGLOBAL_SET 000778768 980__ $$aEBOOK 000778768 980__ $$aBIB 000778768 982__ $$aEbook 000778768 983__ $$aOnline 000778768 994__ $$a92$$bISE
