肿瘤生物治疗（Biotherapy） What is biological cell immunotherapy? Biological therapy of tumor is a new method of tumor treatment, which uses biological technology to regulate and enhance the immune defense mechanism of tumor patients, so as to kill tumor and effectively eliminate residual tumor cells in patients. Cancer cells are normal cells that mutate and escape from the bodys immune system and wreak havoc and destroy normal tissues. So, can the immune system of the body produce anti-cancer factors to kill cancer cells, too? Scientific research has made this possible. In fact, as early as the beginning of this century, foreign scientists discovered that the immune system might clear tumor cells. In 1909, Ehrlich argued that the immune system is not only responsible for defense against microbial invasion, but also the removal of altered host components from the body. The discovery is a shock to cancer therapy and medicine, which could break the curse of cancer as an incurable disease. Biotherapy is a method of enhancing the immune function of the organism and enhancing the defense capacity of the body against cancer, also known as immunotherapy. It can adjust the balance between the damaged organism and cancer by inducing the active immunity or adoptive immunity of the organism, so that the immune function of the cancer patients can be recovered. Has a strong complementary role of combined application of cell tumor immunotherapy and modern surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, plays an important role to prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis in minimal residual disease and clearance in different parts. Biotherapy is a new method for the treatment of tumor based on molecular biology, molecular immunology, oncology and so on over the past ten years. As early as seventeenth Century, it was found that breast cancer patients, such as at the same time other parts of abscess, can make breast cancer subsided. It was not until the 50s of this century that biological therapies,
