Immunotherapy at Medwise Hospital
Immunotherapy is a groundbreaking cancer treatment that harnesses the power of the body’s own immune system to fight cancer. Unlike traditional treatments, which directly target cancer cells, immunotherapy works by boosting the immune system’s natural ability to detect and destroy cancer cells. At Medwise Hospital, we offer advanced immunotherapy options, providing hope and new possibilities for patients with various types of cancer.
Advanced Diagnostic Technique
At Medwise Hospital, we employ a range of advanced diagnostic tools and technologies to accurately identify and stage cancer, including:
Imaging Studies: Our state-of-the-art imaging technologies, such as MRI, CT scans, PET scans, and mammography, allow us to visualize tumors and assess their size, location, and potential spread to other areas of the body.
Biopsy and Histopathology: We perform minimally invasive biopsies to obtain tissue samples, which are then analyzed by our expert pathologists to confirm the presence of cancer and determine its type and grade.
Molecular and Genetic Testing: Understanding the genetic makeup of a tumor can provide crucial insights into the best treatment options. We offer molecular and genetic testing to identify specific mutations and biomarkers that can guide personalized treatment plans.
Blood Tests: Blood tests, including tumor markers, can offer additional information about the presence of cancer and help in monitoring treatment effectiveness.
Advanced Immunotherapy Options at Medwise Hospital
Medwise Hospital offers a range of cutting-edge immunotherapy options, including:
- PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitors: These checkpoint inhibitors help immune cells attack cancer cells by blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, which some cancers use to hide from the immune system.
- CTLA-4 Inhibitors: Another class of checkpoint inhibitors that work by enhancing the immune system’s ability to fight cancer.
- Adoptive Cell Transfer: Techniques like CAR T-cell therapy, where immune cells are engineered to better fight cancer, are available for specific types of cancer.
- Combination Therapies: In some cases, immunotherapy is combined with other treatments like chemotherapy or targeted therapy to enhance effectiveness.
