To help readers better understand this advanced treatment trend, Dan Tri Electronic Newspaper in collaboration with the High Technology Center, part of the Vinmec Healthcare System, organized an online seminar with the topic: "Learn about autologous immune enhancement therapy - The golden key to improving the effectiveness of cancer treatment".
The discussion will take place at 8:00 p.m. on June 12 with two experts:
- Prof. Dr. Nguyen Thanh Liem - Director of Vinmec Stem Cell and Gene Technology Research Institute; Head of Department of Regenerative Medicine and Cell Therapy, Vinmec Times City International General Hospital
- MSc. Dr. Quach Thanh Dung - Head of Oncology and Hematology Department, Vinmec Times City International General Hospital
When the immune system becomes your own doctor
Cancer is no longer a death sentence, especially in the era of targeted therapy and personalized medicine. One of the strategies that is being researched and effectively applied in the world is autologous immunity, which is to utilize the patient's own immune cells to selectively destroy cancer cells without affecting healthy tissue.
No longer a theoretical concept, autologous immunotherapy has now been practically implemented in Vietnam, in which Vinmec is a pioneer with an international standard cell lab system, allowing the culture, differentiation and replication of the patient's autologous immune cells.
At the seminar, Prof. Dr. Nguyen Thanh Liem, one of the leading experts in stem cells and regenerative medicine, will directly share the scientific foundation of this therapy.
In addition, MSc. Dr. Quach Thanh Dung, who directly treats cancer cases at Vinmec Times City Oncology Center, will bring practical stories: who is suitable, how effective is it, can it be combined with chemotherapy/radiation therapy or not...
Don't miss the "golden opportunity" from your own immune system
The seminar is a valuable opportunity for patients, families, and readers interested in cancer treatment to update knowledge directly from leading experts, and to understand correctly a method that is still new in Vietnam but is gradually proving its outstanding value.
In reality, many patients are still confused and misinterpret immunotherapies, not fully understanding their mechanisms of action and conditions for application. There are even cases where people arbitrarily intervene because they hear unverified information on social networks, causing serious health impacts.
Through this program, Vinmec's team of experts will help viewers clearly distinguish between autologous immunotherapy, which subjects should or should not apply it; why autologous immunotherapy is not a panacea, but is a "golden key" to support increased treatment effectiveness...
As many countries have gradually shifted from "killing cancer at all costs" to "living with cancer safely and minimally invasively", autologous immunity is part of a more humane medical trend, where the body is supported to heal itself.
Readers can ask questions to experts now.
Main contents of the discussion:
- What is autologous immunotherapy? How is it different from traditional treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc.?
- Immune cells activated in the laboratory: Separated, cultured, then returned to the body to perform the function of destroying cancer cells.
- Treatment effectiveness through actual clinical cases at Vinmec: Some patients with liver, lung, stomach cancer... have recorded positive changes when combining autologous immunotherapy with standard treatment regimens.
- The role of regenerative medicine: Autologous immunity is not simply a cancer treatment but also an important part of a comprehensive regenerative medicine strategy, restoring and protecting the body after treatment...
