How did doctors learn to use the body’s own immune system to fight cancer?
In Part 2 of the CROC Podcast’s special immunotherapy series, “Immunotherapy 101: Releasing the Brakes,” Dr. E traces the remarkable history of immunotherapy—from Dr. William Coley’s early experiments in the 1890s to today’s groundbreaking cancer treatments.
Learn how checkpoint inhibitors awaken T cells, how CAR T-cell therapy transforms a patient’s own cells into “living drugs,” and how cancer vaccines, antibodies, and radiation therapy can work with the immune system to attack cancer. Dr. E also explains the potential benefits, limitations, and serious side effects of these rapidly advancing treatments.
Knowledge can help take fear down a notch. Share this episode with a survivor, caregiver, or anyone who wants to understand how immunotherapy is changing cancer care.
