In this episode we are joined by Dr Toby Talbot a consultant oncologist who has been heavily involved in modern immunotherapy through his work with melanoma trials. He treats skin, sarcoma and lung cancer and is discussing what immunotherapy is as a cancer treatment.
We discuss how this new cancer therapy is different to chemotherapy and how it is sometimes used with other treatments.
