Discovering the PD-1 Checkpoint: Winners of the 2014 William B. Coley Award for Tumor Immunology

At present in 2016, PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors is one of the most potential chemical to treatment cancer from an immune system base. Many patients are waiting for fewer side effects, wider application and cheaper prices.

genetically engineering a person so their immune system attacks the cancer? yikes. only a desperate cancer patient completely ignorant of alternative treatments would agree to something as creepy as that.

fortunately for drug companies billions of such people exist

Go figure. I got no PD-1 in my blood and I started Optivo a little over 2 months ago and the cancer is going away. Not sure what is activating T-cells but not complaining with stage 4 lung cancer.

I am stag 4 triple negative breast cancer I am looking for treatment instead of chemo

treat the cancer and get autoimmune diseases? I'm assuming this is reserved for terminal stage cancers right?

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

triggered so much your the actual god!

This proves why cancer funding and big pharma cooperation is extremely important and must continue.

听说，是本庶佑（好像还有詹姆斯艾莉森)抢了陈列平的戏，导致陈列平没能夺取2018年诺贝尔医学奖和生理学奖，还听说在打官司......江湖险恶，不行就撤。。。。

Devo minha cura a esses cientistas. Sou grato a eles por toda a eternidade!❤️

I thank for my life to those cientists. I was stage IV metastatic lung cancer. After 1 year with Nivolumab, I am clean! Thanks forever!❤️

how do you do that?
