Singaporean Development of Cell Therapy Treatment for Cancer
Explaining the ground-breaking nature of this trial, Dr Toh says, “What we’re doing is to extract T-cells from the patient’s own blood, then ‘educate’ these cells to recognize certain viral proteins. These T-cells will be expanded into large numbers in the lab and returned back to the patients to fight the cancer.”
