Find out about Cell Therapy and what makes it different from other treatments available to patients today!

Cell Therapy is an emerging form of treatment for cancer and other diseases. Particularly focusing on autologous immunotherapy treatment, dendritic cells are removed from the patient and manipulated outside of the body using a signal from the tumor or cancer. When the cells are reentered into the body, the tumor or cancer is recognized as foreign, other cells recognize this foreign signal, and a natural immune response is generated.
