This comprehensive book presents the most up-to-date and innovative information on the immunotherapy of breast cancer. The book opens by providing an introduction to mechanisms of the immune system in cancer, including the principles of immunoediting and the cancer-immunity cycle. After discussion of the prognostic and predictive roles of the immune system in breast cancer, attention is turned to successful therapeutic strategies. The use of monoclonal antibodies is thoroughly described, and a particular focus of the book is the use of checkpoint inhibitors to strengthen the immune system by releasing its brakes, this being an area of growing importance. In addition, novel vaccination strategies in breast cancer and early treatment concepts using chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are covered in depth. The book concludes by examining future prospects in the field. Written by international experts in the topics that they address, Breast Cancer Immunotherapy will be a valuable update for researchers and clinical practitioners alike.

Chemische Transportreaktionen weisen ein gemeinsames Merkmal auf: In Gegenwart eines gasförmigen Reaktionspartners, des Transportmittels, wird eine feste oder flüssige Komponente verflüchtigt. An anderer Stelle scheidet sie sich meist in Form gut ausgebildeter Kristalle wieder ab. So ist der Chemische Transport z. B. für den Festkörperchemiker ein unentbehrliches Verfahren zur Herstellung reiner, gut kristallisierter Feststoffe.Als umfassendes Handbuch behandelt dieses Werk die vielseitigen Aspekte von Chemischen Transportreaktionen: Von der Grundlagenforschung bis hin zur praktischen Bedeutung, beispielsweise für die Funktionsweise von Halogenlampen.

This comprehensive handbook covers the diverse aspects of chemical vapor transport reactions from basic research to important practical applications. The book begins with an overview of models for chemical vapor transport reactions and then proceeds to treat the specific chemical transport reactions for the elements, halides, oxides, sulfides, selenides, tellurides, pnictides, among others. Aspects of transport from intermetallic phases, the stability of gas particles, thermodynamic data, modeling software and laboratory techniques are also covered. Selected experiments using chemical vapor transport reactions round out the work, making this book a useful reference for researchers and instructors in solid state and inorganic chemistry.
