Use of dhS1P and/or PhotoImmunoNanoTherapy as a therapeutic agent is described. Administration of therapeutically effective amounts of dhS1P decrease the number of Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells and immune suppression in cancer patients. Administration of therapeutically effective amounts of dhS1P can be used as an adjuvant to conventional cancer therapies including immunotherapies. Therapeutic results can be achieved by directly administering dhS1P and/or by indirectly increasing the amount of dhS1P at the tumor site. The therapy permits the patient's immune system to recognize and eliminate cancer cells reducing tumor size and extending patient survival.
