What are the Trends to Treat Cancer?
Immunotherapy and pharmacogenomics are two fields that have gained increasing attention in recent years due to their potential in revolutionizing the treatment of various diseases, including cancer. Immunotherapy involves harnessing the power of the immune system to fight diseases, while pharmacogenomics aims to personalize medical treatments based on an individual's genetic makeup. In this blog, we will explore how these two fields are coming together to improve the treatment of cancer. Immunotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that involves using drugs to stimulate the body's immune system to attack cancer cells. Unlike traditional treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation, which can damage healthy cells along with cancer cells, immunotherapy targets cancer cells specifically, leading to fewer side effects. One of the most promising forms of immunotherapy is immune checkpoint inhibitors, which block proteins that cancer cells use to evade detection by the immune syst
