Chimeric Antigen Receptor (Car) T Cell Therapy

Hikmet Gülşah Tanyıldız, Zeynep Karakaş

Cancer is one of the most common causes of death in children. More than 300.000 children are diagnosed with cancer all over the world in a year. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, smart drugs, stem cell transplants and immunotherapies are among the standard treatment options. When a tumor is confined, tiny, and non-metastatic, surgery is beneficial. If the resection is insufficient, there is a chance that the cancer will return. Despite its efficiency, radiation and chemotherapy damage healthy tissues and can have serious side effects. As a result, new therapeutic modalities, like immunotherapy using CAR-T cells, are being used. Although it has shown great success in treating pediatric hematological malignancies, there is still scant information on solid tumors. Lately, Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has come to the agenda as a one of confidence and effective alternative treatment in cancer. Instead of classical treatment CAR-T has been promising more effective and a durable treatment in some of childhood cancers. CAR-T cell and immunotherapy are seen as the ”fifth basic pole” of cancer treatment in the scientific community
