Ohio State experts are among the only teams in the nation to treat cancer with CAR-T—a new immunotherapy that attacks cancer cells with fewer side effects.
The breakthrough therapy harnesses a patient’s own immune system to treat cancer in children and adults via the removal of T-cells, on which Chimeric Antigen Receptors—or CARs—are then placed.
The process works by retraining the cells to identify and attack cancer, enabling more rapid results without many of the side effects of traditional treatments.
“CAR-T teaches those T-cells how to recognize a cancer cell that sort of managed to evade someone’s own immune system,” Samantha M Jaglowski, MD says. “This is really the next phase of personalized medicine, where we’re taking a patient’s own cells and using it to make a treatment specifically for their own cancer.”

This animation explains how immunotherapy works for lung cancer. Immunotherapy uses medicine to stimulate the body’s immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells. The immunotherapy drugs that are most often used to treat lung cancer are called “checkpoint inhibitors.” On the surface of cancer cells there are proteins that “put the brakes” on the immune system. They serve as “checkpoints” that stop the immune system from launching an all-out assault on cancer. Checkpoint inhibitors work by “taking off the brakes” and giving the immune system free rein to release special cells called T cells that attack the cancer. Watch to learn about checkpoint proteins called PD-1, PD-L1, CTLA-4, considerations for combining immunotherapy with chemotherapy, as well as learn about possible side effects of immunotherapy for lung cancer.

Cancer Diagnosis Tests: Watch this video to listen to Dr. Sachin Marda talking about different diagnostic tests for cancer
How is cancer diagnosed and its suspicion confirmed? If you have visited the oncologist, they will confirm it by tracking your medical history and conducting a clinical examination and through diagnostic testing.
Cancer treatment relies on a thorough diagnosis. Oncologists not only confirm the presence of cancer, but they also identify its type and the stage it is at. Various diagnostic procedures like Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC), tru-cut needle biopsy, CT scan, MRI scan, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, endoscopy, and colonoscopy are useful in this process.
Once cancer is properly defined, further treatment can be given accordingly. Watch the next video in our series which explains the treatment options for cancer.

Before starting cancer treatment, breast cancer patient Doris Thomas went through a series of tests at MD Anderson Cancer Center, all in one day. Since MD Anderson is a multidisciplinary hospital, it is typical for tests to be scheduled and completed under one roof in one day. Tests performed include an echocardiogram, lung CT scan, lab work and brain MRI.
