CAR T Cell Therapy
CAR T Cell Therapy is an advanced cancer treatment that modifies a patient's T cells to recognize and destroy cancer cells. It is primarily used for blood cancers like certain leukemias and lymphomas. The patient’s T cells are collected, genetically altered in a lab, and then infused back into the body. This therapy offers targeted action against cancer and is effective when other treatments have failed.
CD19 CAR T Therapy – Used mainly for B-cell cancers like acute lymphoblastic leukemia and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
BCMA CAR T Therapy – Targets multiple myeloma by focusing on the B-cell maturation antigen found on cancerous plasma cells.
Patients undergo evaluations including blood tests, bone marrow biopsy, flow cytometry, genetic tests, and imaging scans to confirm diagnosis and determine eligibility. These tests ensure the cancer type expresses the necessary antigens for CAR T therapy.
