Risk Assessment & Screening
Certain factors, including family history, may increase your chance of developing cancer. Atal Memorial Cancer Care recognizes the importance of assessing your cancer risk and of detecting the disease early, when there is the greatest chance of a cure.
If you have a history of cancer in your family, we can provide information about hereditary cancer and genetics. Our Clinical Genetics Service has specially trained genetic counselors and physicians who can discuss ways to minimize your cancer risk as much as possible.
Screening is also an essential part of cancer care and prevention. Our doctors have developed screening guidelines for the most common cancers – breast, cervical, colorectal, head and neck, ovarian, prostate, and skin cancer – based upon our experience treating patients at AMCC. We also offer many screening services at our state-of-the-art facilities in Manhattan and at our regional sites in the tri-state area.
In addition, our researchers have pioneered the use of cancer prediction tools to help patients and physicians decide among the major treatment choices for several cancers.

BImmunotherapy
Immunotherapy is a form of cancer treatment that uses the immune system to attack cancer cells, in much the same way that it attacks bacteria or viruses.
This type of therapy seeks to harness different types of immune cells circulating in your body and has the potential to provide lasting benefits. Simply put, immunotherapy treats your body, and your body treats cancer.
In recent years, there have been major advances in the field of cancer immunotherapy, and this treatment is currently being investigated for many cancer types.
Types of Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy can be given in the form of drugs or as a cell-based therapy, which means that we extract and modify a patient’s own immune cells before infusing them back into the body.
Checkpoint Inhibitors :Checkpoint inhibitors work by releasing a natural brake on your immune system so that immune cells called T cells recognize and attack tumors.
CAR T Cell Therapy :Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is an approach in which scientists genetically engineer a patient’s own immune cells to make a new protein. This turns them into supercharged cancer fighters.
Cancer Vaccines :Therapeutic cancer vaccines train your body to protect itself against its own damaged or abnormal cells — including cancer cells.
