China News Network, November 5 (Reporter Chen Jing) "Is cancer saved? "What is the ultimate blade to conquer cancer?" The reporter learned on the 4th that the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine winners Ben Shuyou and William Kailin; two academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences: Fan Jia, president of zhongshan hospital affiliated to Fudan University, and Member of the Faculty of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, dean of the Shanghai Institute of Immunotherapy Innovation, and professor dong Chen of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine unveiled the cutting-edge mysteries of cancer immunotherapy and introduced the latest progress in the clinical application of immunotherapy in the field of cancer treatment.

Dong Chen said: "The era of comprehensive cancer prevention and treatment has arrived, we need a full range of strategies to conquer cancer, in addition to surgery, now there is also radiotherapy, chemotherapy, the latest to join this ranks is immunotherapy." We humans have begun to use immunity to play a game with cancer. ”

As a supporter of the "Science Carnival", Bristol-Myers Squibb introduced that it has carried out more than 30 clinical studies of immuno-tumors. The company is the first to introduce immuno-oncology therapeutics and dual immuno-oncology treatments to the world for the benefit of patients.

Michael Shepard, winner of the 2019 Lasker Clinical Medical Research Award, said there are no specific drugs for lung cancer, but there are some good ways and methods to slow down the severe rate of lung cancer. Smoking can "kill" the body's cancer suppressor genes, and if these cancer suppressor genes are "killed", the cancer cells will grow on their own.

Fan Jia said that if the power of this side of the tumor is strong, the strength of immunity is weak, then it is easy to tumor; if the immune function is too strong, it is easy to produce autoimmune diseases, and the most important thing is the balance between tumorigenesis and development and the body's immune function. Fan Jia stressed that our human body must maintain a balance, balance so as not to get sick. Zhang Wenhong, director of the National Center for Infectious Disease Medicine and director of the Department of Infectious Diseases at Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, said that one day if immunity cannot keep up, we will eventually lose this battle with cancer.

Jointly organized by the World Association of Top Scientists and the Shanghai Terminus of China Central Radio and Television Corporation, the "Science Carnival" launched activities such as "Life and Health Forum: The Game of Immunity and Cancer" and "Agricultural Science and Technology Forum: Science and Technology Shape the Future of Agriculture". The "Science Carnival" is the official event of the 4th World Top Scientists Forum. Four representatives of old, middle-aged and young agricultural science and technology experts from different ages told interesting stories of playing with new technologies, subverting traditional production methods and innovating agricultural application scenarios in a down-to-earth manner.
