Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy is an innovative and highly effective treatment that leverages the body’s immune system to fight cancer. Unlike traditional treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation, which directly target cancer cells, immunotherapy works by stimulating or enhancing the body’s natural defense mechanisms to recognize and destroy cancer cells more efficiently.
At Yashoda Hospital, Secunderabad, Dr. Sravan Kumar Chintala offers specialized Immunotherapy services as part of a comprehensive cancer care plan. This cutting-edge treatment is particularly beneficial for patients with cancers that are difficult to treat with conventional therapies, such as advanced melanoma, lung cancer, breast cancer, and certain types of lymphoma.
Key Features of Our Immunotherapy Service:
- Personalized Treatment Plans: Dr. Chintala develops individualized immunotherapy regimens based on the specific type and stage of cancer, ensuring the most effective and targeted approach.
- Checkpoint Inhibitors: These drugs help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells by blocking certain proteins that allow cancer cells to evade immune detection.
- Monoclonal Antibodies: Lab-made antibodies designed to bind to specific targets on cancer cells, promoting the immune system’s ability to destroy the tumor.
- Cancer Vaccines: Vaccines designed to stimulate the immune system to attack specific cancer cells.
- Combination Therapy: Immunotherapy is often combined with chemotherapy, radiation, or targeted therapies to enhance treatment effectiveness.
