That said, to a first-timer, the gathering probably would have felt like an update on using the immune system to fight cancer, despite our more than 30 years of using such strategies. The science behind the development of these promising monoclonal antibodies is outstanding, and the impact will certainly be far reaching.

Immunotherapy moves into the breast cancer landscape
At this year’s San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, investigators presented some encouraging findings for difficult-to-treat patient populations, but issues such as therapy side effects and fertility concerns in younger patients also highlighted the importance of looking closely at the risk-benefit relationship in delivering quality, personalized care to patients with breast cancer.
