CAR-T cell therapy has shown promising results in treating various types of cancer, including leukemia and lymphoma. However, it is a highly specialized and complex treatment that requires specialized facilities and highly trained medical professionals. For this reason, many patients choose to travel abroad to receive CAR-T cell therapy.
Several countries around the world offer CAR-T cell therapy, including the United States, Europe, China, and Australia. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved two CAR-T cell therapies for the treatment of certain types of leukemia and lymphoma.
What is CAR-T-cell Treatment?CAR-T-cell (chimeric antigen receptor T-cell) therapy is a type of cancer treatment that harnesses the power of the immune system to fight cancer. In this treatment, immune cells are extracted from a patient's body and genetically modified in a lab to recognize and attack cancer cells. The modified cells are then infused back into the patient's bloodstream, where they seek out and destroy cancer cells.
Sub-procedures/types of TreatmentThere are currently two FDA-approved CAR-T-cell therapies: Kymriah and Yescarta. Both are used to treat certain types of blood cancer, including leukemia and lymphoma. However,CAR-T-cell therapy is a relatively new and rapidly evolving field, and clinical trials are ongoing to explore its potential for treating other types of cancer.
