Description
This book considers clinical problems associated with new modalities of cancer treatment involving recombinant cytokines. The first half of the book is devoted to various types of associations of cytokines with tumor cells, while the second half addresses the therapeutic potential of multidisciplinary devices in biological treatment with recombinant cytokine. Some of these indicate the future direction of cancer treatment.
