Immunotherapy of Renal Cell Carcinoma
Springer Berlin (Verlag)
978-3-540-52835-7 (ISBN)
Advanced renal cell carcinoma is refractory to nearly forms of systemic therapy. For this reason the last decade has seen numerous research groups working on immunotherapeutic strategies against it. Immunotherapy of Renal Cell Carcinoma reports the contributions of most of the world's leading research groups to two international conferences on the immunobiology of this illness. Sixteen chapters divided in experimental and clinical studies provide an overview of immunotherapy in renal cell carcinoma and a discussion of new laboratory approaches to this topic.
Immunotherapy is after surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy the fourth treatment modality in the armamentarium of the renal cell carcinoma. This book provides an overview of the whole field of immunotherapy and gives a state of the art of experimental and clinical achievements.
