A NEW HOPE FOR CANCER PATIENTS
A new supplementary treatment has been developed for cancer patients who have undergone chemotherapy, surgery and/or radiotherapy in Israel. This treatment, which is only available in Hadassah medical center in Israel, and available through S.P.A LTDis based on the use of lymphocytes (cells of the immune system) obtained from any donor, without the need for matched tissues. The cells are activated in the laboratory and turned into cancer killing cells. They are subsequently transfused into the body of the patient through a vein, or a blood vessel that feeds a cancer metastasis, where they are capable of identifying and attacking residual cancer cells in the body that have survived previous treatments.
The treatment is given at the Bone Marrow Transplantation Department's, without need of hospitalization. some 4000 patients are treated there every year.with big successes.
Utilization of the immune system in the fight against malignant cells sometimes enables patients to overcome malignant disease even after it has metastasized. the protocols used today to treat cancer are intelligent rather than more powerful. In principle, this makes it possible to eliminate malignant processes while conserving the patients' quality of life. In addition, it is possible to attach special antibodies to the cancer killing cells that are able to direct the killer cells (T cells and natural killer (NK) cells) directly to the tumor cells, thereby improving their ability to destroy cancerous cells while lessening the danger of their harming normal cells, especially when the patient is at the stage of residual disease but there is a danger of future recurrence. |
