Cancer Immunotherapy Market size was valued at USD 125.7 billion in 2023 and is estimated to grow at 9.3% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. Cancer immunotherapy refers to a diverse set of treatments that harness the body's immune system to recognize, attack, and eliminate cancer cells. Unlike traditional cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy, which directly target cancer cells, immunotherapy works by enhancing or restoring the immune system's ability to recognize and destroy cancer cells.
The immune system is equipped with specialized cells, proteins, and mechanisms designed to identify and eliminate foreign invaders, including cancer cells. However, cancer cells can sometimes evade detection or suppression by the immune system, allowing tumors to grow and spread unchecked.
