Immunotherapy is a revolutionary cancer treatment that harnesses the power of your own immune system to detect and destroy cancer cells. Unlike traditional treatments, which directly attack the tumor, immunotherapy works by stimulating your body’s natural defenses to recognize and eliminate cancer more effectively. Dr. Kshitij Domadia, a certified expert in advanced cancer care, uses immunotherapy as a personalized, cutting-edge option for eligible patients with lung, kidney, head & neck, and prostate cancers.
How Immunotherapy Works
- Blocking immune checkpoints like PD-1, PD-L1, or CTLA-4
- Boosting T-cells to attack cancer cells
- Helping the immune system remember cancer cells to prevent recurrence
Cancer cells often escape detection by the immune system. Immunotherapy helps "unmask" these cells and activates immune responses by:
Types of Immunotherapy Used
-
Checkpoint Inhibitors
The most common form used in solid tumors like lung and kidney cancer. These drugs (e.g., nivolumab, pembrolizumab) release immune brakes. -
Cytokine Therapy
Stimulates immune cells with proteins like interferons or interleukins. -
Cancer Vaccines (Experimental)
Trains the immune system to recognize specific cancer antigens. -
Monoclonal Antibodies (Targeted Immunotherapy)
Lab-made proteins that attach to cancer cells and mark them for destruction.
When Is Immunotherapy Recommended?
- Who test positive for biomarkers like PD-L1
- In cases resistant to traditional chemotherapy
- As part of combination therapy with chemo or targeted therapy
- To help prolong survival and improve quality of life
Dr. Kshitij recommends immunotherapy in patients:
Benefits of Immunotherapy
- Trains your immune system to fight cancer long-term
- Often well-tolerated with fewer side effects than chemotherapy
- Can lead to durable remissions in responsive patients
- Works especially well in certain lung, kidney, and head & neck cancers
Possible Side Effects
Although generally well-tolerated, immunotherapy may cause:
- Fatigue
- Skin rashes or itching
- Fever or joint pain
- Immune-related side effects (e.g., inflammation of lungs, liver, thyroid)
Dr. Kshitij monitors patients closely and manages side effects with prompt, evidence-based interventions.
