Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a type of molecular drugs that modify the immune system’s ability to fight cancer. They help the immune system recognize cancer cells and attack them more effectively. These drugs can be used to help treat advanced cancers that have proven resistant to other treatments. They provide hope for patients whose cancer has not responded to other treatments or for whom treatments are not available. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved the outlook for many cancer patients, and their use has become more widespread in recent years.
