CAR-T Cell Therapy: Introduce yourself and connect with others

Hi there - @hthree, I was treated with Car T, Yescarta, for non Hodgkins Large B Cell Lymphoma after several failed attempts with various chemo therapies, I was treated all within 8 months, so chemo failures were very quickly identified.
There were no visible cancer cells after 100 days. Car T treatment was in August of 2018. I had follow up Pet and MRI scans for two years following the Car T infusion, there has been no signs of cancer since. I am currently seeing my Oncologist every 12 months as follows up.
It is my understanding that Car T is now being used as a treatment for more than just blood cancers, what are you currently being treated for?

Hello Bob
It's nice to hear from you and congratulations for a successful treatmrnt that really was a game changer for you
I have been reluctant to do the CarT. It has had few positive outcomes for Multiple Myeloma.
Still, I haven't eliminated it as a possibility.
Hope you continue to do well
Hallie
