An immunotherapy drug that could save some cancer patients from the ordeal of extreme chemotherapy may also help them live longer, researchers say.
Axar.az reports citing BBC.

The patients also suffered far fewer side-effects.
Cases of head and neck cancers are rising in the UK and most are diagnosed late, when they are hard to treat.
