Summary
Immunotherapy has been an important recent advance in cancer treatment by using the body's own immune cells to fight cancer. Although there have been unprecedented dramatic results, not all patients benefit, and most benefits are temporary. The cellular environment in which cancers are embedded is crucial for controlling treatment success. We aim to apply novel 'precision' therapies to this environment to expose the cancer and enable attack by immune cells for improved immunotherapy.
