CAR-T - Looking for statistical data for over 70 age group
After being told this January that my cancer was back (after 20 years of remission) I have undergone several months of chemo. Unfortunately, the cancer has been resistant but my oncologist is suggesting CAR-T. I have tried to find out if results are good for my age group but cannot find much statistically. I will be meeting with the oncology group soon (after having results from last scan). Does anyone know of any statistical data out there for over 70 age group? Thanks in advance.

Hello @taylaroleary - I am sorry for your loss, so glad to hear that Car T added time and comfort for your family. It is so unfortunate that medications and treatments are not always 100% effective.
Is your family close by for support
Hello Joe,
I am brand new to this site. I am reading all the most up to date posts. Did you undergo CAR T? And, how are you now? My husband will be taking part in a CAR T clinical trial soon.
Thank you,
Nancy Simpson
While you’re waiting for other members who have experience with CAR T thereapy to respond, I’d like to welcome to Connect, @ntsimpson. Are there any specific questions that you have? What illness has led your husband to be needing CAR T?
My husband has CLL. He has just rejected a fourth line treatment.
