Immunotherapy
In preparation for your first immunotherapy treatment we would
recommend that you:
- Watch the UHBW video on immunotherapy below or on YouTube.
- Read the Macmillan immunotherapy information relevant to
you.
- Read the Macmillan leaflet on the specific treatment regimen
you will be receiving. You may access this information on the
Macmillan website.
This short film, developed within UHBW, will guide you through
some general information on immunotherapy and what side effects you
may experience whilst having the treatment.
