Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology publishes manuscripts on drug discovery, pre-clinical and clinical development of agents targeting the immune system, and immunotoxicology of defined drug compounds. It focuses on anti-inflammatory treatments, cancer immunotherapy, vaccines, small molecules, biologics, and cell-based therapies, and covers immune-mediated diseases, cancer immunology, infections, transplantation, allergy, chronic kidney disease, neurodegenerative disorders, immunodeficiencies, neurology, inflammatory atherosclerosis, and related areas. The journal considers mechanism-of-action studies, in vitro and pre-clinical animal studies, and non-interventional and interventional clinical studies.
