Each chapter meticulously discusses the development costs, market adoption, and the financial policies that shape these therapies' availability and affordability.

Concluding with Chapter 12, "Synthesizing Costs and Future Financial Strategies in Cancer Immunotherapy," the book proposes strategies to mitigate costs and expand global access to these life-saving treatments. It sets a forward-looking view on how economic and clinical landscapes might evolve, and how innovations could transform healthcare economics.
