Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Immunotherapy is the treatment of disease by inducing, enhancing, or suppressing an immune response. It involves the alteration of the body's immune functions to fight diseases, particularly cancer, but also other conditions. Hypersensitivity, passive immunity, active immunity, and adaptive immunity are all aspects or types of immune responses, not treatments that alter immune functions.
