The article discusses the use of immunotherapy, in place of chemotherapy and radiation, to treat cancer patients. Topics include an increase in investments and clinical trials involving immunotherapy, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval of checkpoint inhibitors used in immunotherapy to treat advanced melanoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, and cancers of the lung, kidney and bladder, and cancer research focused on understanding and controlling immunotherapy and the risk factors involved.
