It's only being used for those who have failed all other therapies, from what I've read. Also, CAR T-cell therapy has been found to increase the risk of certain blood cancers.
It is that but My treatment has helped me with My high sedimentation rate
@A MyLupusTeam Member is it working well for you? Or is it a study in which you don’t know whether you receive the treatment vs placebo?
I'm participating but not that one i'm taking a medication to control the inflamatory response from the body.
I understand, New. You may qualify for a CAR T-cell trial if you have been through the whole gamut of treatment options and failed. I hope that's not the case, though, and that you still have many options.
Maybe once more data accrues on the therapy, it will become more widely available to us.
Is anybody receiving the CAR-T Cell Therapy? If positive, how are you doing with this new treatment?
