Immunotherapy is a treatment that uses certain parts of your immune system to fight diseases such as melanoma by:
-Stimulating your own immune system to work harder or smarter to attack cancer cells.
-Giving your immune system components, such as man-made immune system proteins, to fight the cancer cells.
Some types of immunotherapy are also called biologic therapy or biotherapy.
