What are the Recent Advances in Pediatric Oncology?
One of the most exciting advancements in pediatric oncology is the development of CAR-T cell therapy. This treatment involves modifying a patient's T-cells to attack cancer cells more effectively. It has shown remarkable success in treating certain types of leukemia and lymphoma. Another innovative approach is the use of targeted therapies that specifically attack cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue, reducing side effects and improving quality of life.
