The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Cancer Immunotherapy Guidelines are a collection of consensus statements developed by experts in the treatment of specific types of cancer. Each consensus statement provides key indicators to help practicing oncologists determine when and how to best use immunotherapy to treat their patients.
These systematically developed recommendations promote enhanced clinical decisions concerning patient selection, toxicity management, clinical endpoints, and the sequencing or combination of therapies. Prior to publication of each Guideline, a Call for Comment phase is opened available only for SITC members to review a draft copy of the Guideline and provide feedback in the goal of further improving the draft.

In response to the ever-growing demand for expert advice on the optimal use of immunotherapy treatments, our Cancer Immunotherapy Guidelines Task Forces have developed consensus statements for genitourinary malignancies (renal, prostate and bladder carcinoma) and hematologic malignancies (multiple myeloma, lymphoma and acute leukemia).
An update of the melanoma consensus statement and new guidelines for lung cancer are also underway. These disease-specific Cancer Immunotherapy Guidelines offer a vital resource for the practicing oncology community.
