Doctors at Rome's Bambino Gesù
(OPBG) children's hospital say that they have successfully used
a blood-purification technique to avert the potential lethal
side effects of the Cart-T therapy on a child with leukemia in a
world first.
After the successful apheresis treatment the child was
discharged from the hospital's intensive-care department after
two weeks.
The paper documenting the use of the technique has been
published by the journal Critical Care Explorations.
