This book highlights new principles of immune suppression that drive cancer, and offers radically new ideas about how therapy can be improved by attacking these principles. It provides an overview of immune escape as a critical trait in cancer and how applying specific combinations of immunotherapy and chemotherapy to attack this trait may radically improve the treatment of advanced disease.
