Drug Found To Stimulate Immune System In Patients With
Prostate Cancerhttp://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/06/080602132921.htmResearchers have found that a drug called Ipilimumab, also known as
MDX-010, works to stimulate the body's own immune system to fight prostate
cancer. The drug was found to be effective in study participants with
a serious type of prostate cancer -- one where the tumor has spread and
was resistant to hormonal treatment and, in some cases, also to
chemotherapy.
