Cancer immunotherapy has been a successful treatment for certain types of tumors. However, colon cancer was not one of them.
A team of Barcelona researchers has just demonstrated a new method that allows the mouse’s immune system to identify and fight the tumor. The treatment was successful enough to prevent tumors from spreading or metastatically to other parts. The treatment also allowed the immune system the ability to quickly eliminate cancers which had already spread.
