The evolution of assays for immuno-oncology research

Drug Discovery World

Cancer is a complex heterogenous multistep disease characterised by uncontrolled cell proliferation combined with a dysregulated immune response. A healthy immune system is naturally primed to eliminate malignant and abnormal cells through a synchronised and dynamic interplay between adaptive and innate immunity.
