Recent advances in head and neck cancer: The beginning of the immunotherapy era in HNSCC

Abstract - 650 PDF - 227
Mayur A. Gadhikar, Jeffrey N. Myers

Abstract


After bringing unprecedented clinical benefits to patients with advanced melanoma, the field of immunotherapy has continued to break new ground and progressively transform the therapeutic landscape across many other cancers. The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), acknowledging the transformative impact and future potential of immunotherapy, has named it the “Advance of the Year” for the second consecutive year.

Keywords


immunotherapy; head and neck squamous cell carcinoma; immune-checkpoint inhibitors
