Medrego team is well qualified and experienced in the topic of CAR T-cell therapy – a type of treatment in which a patient’s T cells (a type of immune cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will bind to cancer cells and kill them.
What is CAR-T Cell Therapy?
CAR-T cell therapy is a form of immunotherapy that harnesses the power of the body’s own immune system to fight cancer. The process begins with the collection of T cells, a type of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the immune response, from a patient’s blood. These T cells are then sent to a laboratory, where they are genetically modified to express a special type of receptor called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR).
The CAR is designed to recognize and bind to a specific protein, called an antigen, that is found on the surface of cancer cells. This allows the modified T cells, now known as CAR-T cells, to specifically target and attack cancer cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed.
After the CAR-T cells are manufactured, they are infused back into the patient’s bloodstream through a vein. Once in the body, the CAR-T cells begin to multiply and seek out cancer cells that carry the antigen targeted by the CAR. Once the CAR-T cells bind to the cancer cells, they release toxic compounds that can kill the cancer cells.
Currently, CAR-T cell therapy is FDA-approved for the treatment of certain types of leukemia and lymphoma, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, it is also being studied in clinical trials for other types of cancer, such as solid tumors and multiple myeloma.
CAR-T cell therapy is an innovative and promising treatment option for cancer patients with a high potential in the future.

End user FAQ about Car-T Cell Therapy:
How does CAR-T cell therapy work?
CAR-T cell therapy is a form of immunotherapy that uses genetically modified T cells, a type of white blood cell, to treat cancer. The T cells are taken from the patient’s blood and modified in a lab to express a receptor called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), which allows them to recognize and target cancer cells. The modified T cells are then infused back into the patient’s bloodstream, where they can locate and attack the cancer cells.
What types of cancer can CAR-T cell therapy treat?
CAR-T cell therapy is currently FDA-approved for the treatment of certain types of leukemia and lymphoma, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and diffuses large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, it is also being studied in clinical trials for other types of cancer, such as solid tumors and multiple myeloma.
How long does the treatment take?
The entire process of CAR-T cell therapy, from collecting and modifying the T cells to infusing them back into the patient, typically takes several weeks. However, the length of time can vary depending on the specific type of cancer being treated and the patient’s individual response to the therapy.
Are there any side effects associated with CAR-T cell therapy?
Like any medical treatment, CAR-T cell therapy can cause side effects. Some of the more common side effects include fever, chills, fatigue, and nausea. In rare cases, it can cause severe side effects such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity.
How long do the CAR-T cells last in the body?
The persistence of CAR-T cells in the body can vary depending on the specific type of cancer being treated and the patient’s individual response to the therapy. Some studies have shown that CAR-T cells can persist in the body for several months to a year or more.
Is CAR-T cell therapy only for patients with advanced cancer?
CAR-T cell therapy can be used for patients with both early-stage and advanced cancer. It is important to consult with a specialist to see if this therapy is appropriate for you.
