Oncology Hematology is a medical practice concerning cancers that impact the blood. Oncology Hematology also encompasses blood disorders which may pre-dispose a person for developing cancer, even if they are cancer-free. Examples of hematological cancers include lymphoma, leukemia, and multimer myeloma.
In prior work, we have pursued how tumor reactive monoclonal antibody (mAb), together with activators of innate immune cells, like NK cells, can augment antibody dependent cell-mediated cytot...
