Breast cancer is a multifactorial, clinically, and, quite probably, etiologically heterogeneous disease that manifests itself only after a long and largely obscure latency period. Breast cancer is also a systemic disease, responding to and causing changes in the host well beyond the sites of cancer growth per se.

Work in progress should produce within the next few years a better understanding of the nature of immune responses to human cancer antigens. Studies to date, notably with melanomas, have shown that many, perhaps most, are immunogenic. However, the antibodies elicited are often not specific to tumor antigens.

Chapter 10 examines the coordinated effort of cells and blood components to detect and defend against cancers. A discussion of natural (effective) response to tumor development will investigate components of immune function to naturally eliminate potentially dangerous precancerous events.

Acentral hypothesis in tumor immunology is that the progression of cancer represents, in some measure, a failure of the host immune system to control tumor growth. The belief that immunological control of cancer is possible is commonly accepted among the lay community, but it has not been fully accepted within the medical community.

Cancer or tumor immunology refers to the field of study that seeks to define the role of the immune system in controlling and regulating the growth and survival of malignant cells. From animal studies, it has been known for decades that tumor cells can be recognized and eliminated by the immune system.

IMMUNOLOGIC DYSFUNCTION IN CANCER
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1996The interactions between the tumor and its host are complex, and many aspects of the immune system appear to be adversely affected directly or indirectly by the presence of the tumor. Virtually all of the processes involved in immune induction and action have been implicated in the observed deficient response in tumor-bearing patients.

Science News, 1967
Most people do not get cancer. Though they fill their lungs with cigarette smoke and breathe polluted air, statistics show only one person in four is likely to get cancer. Science does not know why some people don't succumb any more than it knows why others do, but the hypothesis that some individuals are immune to cancer is an intriguing thought which

Clinical Radiology, 1967
Experimental studies supporting the concept that neoplastic cells possess abnormal specific antigens are reviewed. Tumour specific antigens have been demonstrated in a range of experimental tumours induced by both chemical carcinogens and oncogenic viruses, but evidence for the specific antigenicities of spontaneous tumours is less certain.

WHERE IS THE IMMUNOLOGY IN CANCER?
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1978Whether the common human cancers possess tumour‐specific antigens which produce an immune response in the host still remains the crucial question in tumour immunology. Recent reports and discussions at the Third International Congress of Immunology suggested that much of the previously published work was not valid.
