What Is Immunotherapy?

Immunotherapy activates your body’s immune system to attack adrenal cancer. It’s more targeted than chemotherapy, so it’s often easier on seniors and can mean better quality of life.

  • Effective for Advanced Disease: Often helps when standard treatments are not enough.

  2. Treatment: Delivered as infusions or injections, often every few weeks.
  3. Follow-Up: Frequent checkups and monitoring for effectiveness and side effects.
