Hello all,
Our Support Services have received several queries about CAR T-cell therapy as a blood cancer treatment, and I’m pleased to let you know that we have now updated our online information on this: What is CAR T-cell therapy? | Blood Cancer UK
As the website explains, CAR T-cell therapy is a new type of cancer treatment that uses the immune system to kill cancer cells. In some cases it has cured people where all other treatments have failed.
There is also a story from Carl, who kindly shared his experience of having CAR-T: CAR T-cell therapy gave me a third chance at life | Blood Cancer UK
If anyone has any questions or experiences they would like to also share around CAR-T, we’d like to invite you to do so in the comments below. It would be great to have a resource here on our forum to help anyone deciding whether this treatment is right for them in the future.
Take care everyone.
Warm wishes,
Ali
