Car T-cell Therapy - The Next Generation of Cancer Care
CAR-T (Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell) therapy is a cutting-edge, FDA approved immunotherapy used to treat several types of cancers, particularly blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma. Unlike traditional treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation, CAR T-cell therapy relies on genetically engineered immune cells that identify and destroy cancer cells, offering a non-radiation based therapy that leverages the body’s own immune system.
This revolutionary treatment has shown substantial effectiveness and offers hope to millions, but access remains a challenge due to its high cost. In the United States, CAR T-cell therapy can cost up to $1 million or more. However, substantially more affordable options are available in other countries, with Thailand emerging as the leading destination. Several top hospitals in Thailand now offer CAR T-cell therapy, supported by significant government investments aimed at reducing costs and increasing accessibility for both Thai citizens and international visitors.
Car T-cell Therapy Process
✅ Collecting the T Cells: Your blood is drawn and is passed through a tube into a machine which removes your T cells. The machine returns the remainder of your blood into your body through a different tube.
✅ Engineering the T Cells: In the lab, scientists engineer your T cells by adding CAR. Then the lab allows the CAR T cells to multiply to substantially higher levels.
✅ Infusing the CAR T Cells: Once your CAR T cells have multiplied to a satisfactory level, they are injected back through your via a standard IV infusion.
* In some cases the medical team may recommend small doses of chemotherapy before CAR T cell administration to bolster the effectiveness of the CAR T therapy *
