Glossary Immunomodulatory Treatments

therapies that adjust immune system activity to treat diseases

Immunomodulatory Treatments are therapies designed to modify the immune system's response. They can either enhance or suppress immune activity to treat various conditions, such as autoimmune diseases, where the immune system attacks the body's own tissues, or to boost the immune response against infections and cancers. These treatments can include medications like corticosteroids, biologics, and other agents that specifically target immune pathways.
