T-cell therapy (CAR T-cell therapy) is an innovative new treatment being researched for lupus patients who haven't responded well to conventional treatments. While it's still in early clinical trials, this therapy shows promise for potentially achieving long-term remission. The treatment works by modifying a patient's own T-cells to target specific cells in the body. It's understandable that CellCept (mycophenolate) didn't work for you - medications can affect everyone differently. Some MyLupusTeam members have reported various side effects with CellCept, and finding the right medication combination often takes time. Your current combination of prednisone and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a commonly used treatment approach for managing lupus symptoms.
