The immunotherapy treatment is designed in such a way that it harnesses the body\u2019s ability to combat infection by fighting diseases. In this therapy, biological substances known as biological response modifiers are used. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What is Immunotherapy for Cancer<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.candrol.com\/what-is-cancer-immunotherapy\/\">Immunotherapy cancer treatment<\/a> in a way works against the deadly disease of cancer by activating the body\u2019s own immune system. That\u2019s why in recent years, immunotherapy has gained great interest among researchers, clinicians, and pharmaceutical companies, particularly in its promise to treat various forms of cancer.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How Does It Work<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells in the body.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">stopping cancer from spreading to other parts of the body.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">helping the immune system work better so that it can destroy cancer cells effectively.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>What Are the Different Immunotherapies for Cancer<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The various cancer immunotherapies available are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><b>Monoclonal antibodies (MABs)<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><b><\/b><b><\/b>MABs work by recognizing<span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 16px;\"> and attaching to specific proteins present on the cancer cells&#8217; surface.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MAB mimic patient\u2019s natural antibodies and trigger the immune system<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The immune system then starts working against cancer.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MABS can sometimes block signals that tell cancer cells to divide. Thereby, inhibiting their population to grow.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><b>Vaccines<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, vaccines help to protect us from diseases. They are being made from weakened or harmless versions of the disease. That is they don\u2019t cause the disease.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The vaccine stimulates the body\u2019s immune system into action which in turn starts making antibodies that can recognize and attack the harmless versions of the disease. Once the body has made these antibodies it recognizes the disease as soon as one encounters it. Thereby, fighting against it with the pre-existing antibodies with it. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research is still going on for testing vaccines to treat cancer. As vaccines work against any disease, they are being made such that they can recognize proteins that are present on the surface of particular cancer cells. This way the immune system recognizes and mounts an attack against those particular cancer cells.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><b>Cytokines<br \/>\n<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>Cytokines are the group of proteins present in the body. They help the body by boosting its immune system. Two types of cytokines interferon and interleukin are present in the body.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><b>Adoptive cell transfer<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s a new type of cancer immunotherapy whose treatment is only available as part of a clinical trial in the UK. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adoptive cell transfer works by the changes in the genes of a person\u2019s white blood cells (T cells) so that they can recognize and kill cancer cells. This is known as genetic engineering of the T cell.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An example of this type of cancer immunotherapy is CAR T-cell therapy.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><b>Checkpoint Inhibitors<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mostly used in the treatment of cancers such as melanoma skin cancer and lung cancer. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As some cancer cells are capable enough to make high levels of proteins. This results in switching off of the T cells when they should really be attacking the cancer cells. So cancer cells are expertise in managing to push a stop button on the immune system so that the T cells are not able to recognize and kill cancer cells.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drugs that act by blocking these checkpoint proteins are known as checkpoint inhibitors. They stop the proteins formation on the cancer cells from pushing the stop button. Turning on the immune system so that now T cells can find and attack the cancer cells.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b>How Immunotherapy is\u00a0Given to Cancer Patients<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Immunotherapy can be given to cancer patients in different ways. These include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Intravenous (IV):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It goes directly into the vein.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Oral:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> drug comes in form of pills or capsules <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Topical:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Topical application comes in form of a cream that you rub onto the skin. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Intravesical:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It goes directly into the bladder.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Homeopathy as Immunotherapy <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Homeopathy is not just curative to cancer but acts as a pacifier to patients from their disturbed mental and emotional conditions and garnered prominence for its real cancer healing capabilities as it heals completely without any side effects and ensures the long life of cancer patients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People now consort to this method of immunotherapy for cancer because of the acclaimed responses achieved so far in patients. The body is internally mobilized in such a manner so as to fight back cancerous cells and eliminate them from the body on its own. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Homeopathic medicines are prescribed after determining the patient history, profile, diagnosing the symptoms and causes, and then the select doses are dispensed to patients, in order, to start the immunizing process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being a holistic form of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.candrol.com\">cancer treatment in India<\/a> homeopathy not just palliates cancers but also stabilizes the person mentally and emotionally. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By homeopathy, cancer can be healed completely if the diagnosis takes place at an early stage. Moreover, people with last-stage cancers also get cured and relieved by homeopathy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Homeopathy works at the molecular level on the principle of \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">like cures like<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d and \u201c maximum dilution with minimum doses.\u201d Thus, it treats patients with highly diluted doses, triggering the body\u2019s innate, natural healing response wherein the body\u2019s immune system becomes strong and starts fighting against cancer. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>CANDROL\u00a0&#8211; Molecular Homeopathy Immunotherapy<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Rishi Sharma and his entire team of physicians were able to invent CANDROL, which is the result of years of research and finally serving patients suffering from cancer.
