Day care · Planned by a medical oncologist
Immunotherapy is a cancer treatment that helps your own immune system find and attack cancer cells. It is usually given as a drip in day care.
It works well for some cancers and not for others. Tests on your tumour often help decide.
From the first consultation to your treatment.
Your doctor reads your reports and checks whether immunotherapy suits your cancer.
If needed, extra tests on your biopsy show whether immunotherapy is likely to work.
The tumour board reviews your case and your doctor explains the plan and possible side effects.
The medicine is given as a drip while nurses watch over you, and you go home the same day.
Immunotherapy is planned and monitored by CION’s medical oncologists. Doctors you can see in the Vizag region are marked.
Tumour tests help pick people who are most likely to benefit.
Side effects differ from chemotherapy; your team tells you which signs to report early.
Blood tests and scans check how you’re responding.
Treat cancer with medicines, such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapy.
