2 is a medical term defined as "treatment of disease by inducing, enhancing, or suppressing an immune response

3 Immunotherapies designed to elicit or amplify an immune response are classified as activation immunotherapies. Immunotherapies designed to reduce, suppress or more appropriately direct an existing immune response, as in cases of autoimmunity or allergy, are classified as suppression immunotherapies.

4 CELL BASED IMMUNOTHERAPIES are proven to be effective for cancers, where the immune cells such lymphocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, natural killer cells (NK Cell), cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), etc., that work together to defend the body against cancers and attacks by "foreign" or "non-self" invaders such as Bacteria and Viruses.

5 EXAMPLES OF activation immunotherapies Cancer immunotherapy attempts to stimulate the immune system to reject and destroy tumorsCancer immunotherapyimmune system
