What are the Latest Advances in Pediatric Cancer Research?
Recent advances in pediatric cancer research include:
- Targeted Therapies: These therapies focus on specific genetic mutations found in cancer cells, minimizing damage to healthy cells. - Immunotherapy: This approach harnesses the body's own immune system to fight cancer. - CAR-T Cell Therapy: A type of immunotherapy where a patient's T cells are modified to attack cancer cells. - Genomic Sequencing: Helps in identifying the genetic mutations responsible for cancer, enabling personalized treatment plans.
