After clinical trials in the United States, Europe and United Kingdom, Health Ministry of Israel has approved a new immunotherapy – CAR-T therapy for the treatment of blood cancer and lymphoma.
Results of the research group at the National Cancer Institute and other American and European cancer centers showed complete cure of more than 70% of patients with refractory and recurrent leukemia. Currently CAR-T therapy is the most modern method of immunotherapy.
Originally developed in Israel by prof. Zelib Eshhar, head of Immunotherapy Laboratory at Ichilov Medical Center, CAR-T therapy is a type of immunotherapy where the patient’s own T-cells (white blood cells) eliminate cancer cells.
Before starting treatment, taken T-cells from patient’s blood are grown in a laboratory, and reprogrammed to produce chimeric antigen receptors. After these modified T-cells injected back to the blood for training the human immune system to recognize and destroy the tumor in the body.
What are the stages of CAR-T treatment or Kymriah?
40-60% have side effects from treatment that are reversible. They may include a cold fever-like symptoms:
In exceptional cases, some side effects require treatment in the intensive care unit.
At the moment leukemia treatment is carried out only in a few medical centers in the world, mainly in the United States. And now, after passing through the certification for CAR-T therapy, it is also available at Sheba Hospital and Ichilov Medical Centers in Israel. These centers include not only medical buildings, but also research laboratories, where they are permanently studying and improving cancer treatment methods.
CAR-T treatment can be performed at the Institute of Hematology, Suraski Medical Center (Ichilov), Tel-Aviv under the guidance of experienced hematologists – prof. Ella Naparstek, prof. Irit Avivi and dr. Odelia Gur, as well as in the hemato-oncology department at Sheba Medical Center under the guidance of prof. Amos Toren, prof. Arnon Nagler and dr. Elad Jacoby.
These medical centers have a doctors team who specializes in CAR-T therapy. They are experienced in the treatment process, and also reduce the risk of side effects.
Leukemia can be a devastating disease, especially in children. But we believe that the solution for this issue lies in advanced medicine and quality service.
