Immunotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses your immune system to find and kill cancer cells. There are different ways to make this happen, and immune cell gene therapy is one of those ways. It’s also called adoptive cell transfer.

​

Genes are pieces of DNA inside a cell that tell the cell what to do. With immune cell gene therapy, genes in certain white blood cells are changed, or “reprogrammed,” so they can find and fight cancer cells in your body. Each person’s treatment is made using their own cells. Your white blood cells will be isolated and expanded in our laboratory and stored for future use.
