What are CAR T Cell Therapies and How Do They Help People with Blood Cancers?

There are 1.5 million Americans living with, or in remission from, a form of blood cancer. Many of these cancers fall into the category of B-cell mediated lymphomas, a type of the disease that starts in B-cells (a type of white blood cell) and often develops in adults older than 60, though can also be diagnosed earlier in life.

B-cell lymphomas can include both fast-growing (aggressive) and slow-growing (indolent) forms, and for those who relapse after initial treatment, or do not respond to initial therapies (refractory), prognosis is poor and there is a profound need for additional effective treatment options.

This September, during Blood Cancer Awareness month, we are thrilled to offer the opportunity to hear from expert Dr. Matthew Lunning, University of Nebraska Medical Center, and Astrid Q., who was diagnosed with lymphoma at the age of 28, and after initially undergoing chemotherapy, experienced a return of her cancer and was then treated with a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy in a clinical trial. Together they can discuss the reality that people face when dealing with relapsed or refractory (R/R) lymphoma and why CAR T cell therapy was the best option for her.

Most importantly, they can provide a deep dive into CAR T cell therapy, an innovative, personalized treatment for certain blood cancers that uses a person’s own immune cells to fight the disease. CAR T cell therapy has been shown to produce results in people living with certain B-cell lymphomas – when other treatments have failed.

Matthew Lunning D.O., FACP, is an Associate Professor in the Division of Hematology/Oncology at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Dr. Lunning also is Associate Vice Chair of Research for the Department of Internal Medicine, Medical Director of the Clinical Research Center (CRC), and Medical Director of Cellular Therapies.  He has served on several National Comprehensive Cancer Network’s guidelines committees including the Immunotherapy Toxicity & T-cell lymphoma panels. Dr. Lunning has been active in clinic research, research mentoring, education, and patient care.

About Astrid Q.:

Astrid Q. was diagnosed with lymphoma when she was 28 years old, while in college studying to become a physician’s assistant (PA). Despite initial rounds of chemotherapy, her cancer returned so she enrolled in a clinical trial to receive a CAR T cell therapy. At the time of her clinical trial participation Astrid was studying for the PA exam while receiving and recovering from CAR T cell therapy treatment. Since her one-time* treatment with CAR T, her yearly scans have been clear. Astrid enjoys meditation, spending time with her husband and baby boy, and her job as a PA.

* Treatment process can take approximately 2-3 months and includes leukapheresis, manufacturing, administration, and adverse event monitoring

For example, reflexology holds that a specific spot in the arch of the foot corresponds to the bladder. When a reflexology practitioner uses thumbs or fingers to apply appropriate pressure to this area, it may affect bladder functioning.

Although reflexology is not used to diagnose or cure health disorders, millions of people around the world use it to complement other treatments when addressing conditions like anxiety, high blood pressure, asthma, cancer treatment, cardiovascular issues, diabetes, headaches, kidney function, PMS, and sinusitis.

5 Effective Pressure Points For High Blood Pressure:

In traditional Oriental medicine, hypertension or high blood pressure is directly connected to blockages in the Liver meridian; therefore, acupressure can be used as a successful complementary therapy in managing hypertension.

GB 20: GB 20 0r Gallbladder 20 is one of the most dynamic pressure points on the body for lowering blood pressure. GB20 also call the “Wind Pool” is found at the base of the skull on both sides of the vertebra. If you slide your thumbs from the lower skull you will find 2 depressions on either side of the vertebra. You can activate this area by applying medium pressure at the same time for 1 minute or longer while you practice deep breathing.

By stimulating this area you promote a homeostatic state, reducing the fluctuation in high and low blood pressure, and assuage headaches. This area also provides relief from back pain, neck pain, fever and eye problems.

LI 11: Also known as “Large Intestine 11”. This is another area of the body that once activated assists in the lowering of high blood. This area is also known as the “Crooked Pond” and is located on the outside of the elbow where the crease in the elbow end.

To activate this point apply strong pressure for about one minute. Then switch arms and apply strong pressure on the opposite area. By activating this area you lower blood pressure, reduce inflammation, and heat. It is helpful for reducing high fever, treating skin diseases, tennis elbow, arm pain and stiffness, menstrual issues and blood circulation issues.

LI 4: LI4 or “Large Intestine 4” is an exceptionally useful pressure point that is markedly used to treat chronic pain, along with the treatment of high blood pressure, and various diseases. This area is also called the “Union Valley”. Located in the webbing between the forefinger and thumb, stimulating it clears stagnation, calms and clears blood flow over the whole body.

It also aids in boosting immunity, treating toothache, eye problems, fear, rhinitis, skin problems, TMJ problems, sinus and menstrual problems. Pregnant women should not stimulate this point as it can induce labor prematurely.

PC 6: PC 6 or “Pericardium 6” soothes the heart and the circulatory system to function properly. An extremely useful pressure point for lowering blood pressure. Located on the inner arm 3 finger widths from the crease in the wrist, the “Inner Gate” also helps relieve anxiety, nausea, vomiting, motion sickness, chest congestion, asthma, cough, wrist pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and headaches.

LV 3: LV 3 or “Liver 3” is a vital acupressure point for lowering blood pressure. Hypertension is closely connected to blockages in the liver meridian and stimulating this point helps in clearing the liver meridian. This point is also called the Bigger Rushing, and it is situated on the top of the foot, on the web margin of skin between the big toe and the second toe.

This point can be stimulated by applying pressure to the point using the index finger for 1 minute. It also helps to cure eye problems, menstrual issues, male impotence, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, anxiety, irritability, and insomnia.

Reflexology may be beneficial in restoring balance and harmony in the body and releasing tension. Practitioners believe that it helps facilitate a deep state of relaxation, calm the emotions, and produce a serene mind. Research studies support many of these benefits.

In case my prior emails ended up in your spam folder, here’s another reminder that there are only six days left until our dance extravaganza with 80’s cover band Jessie’s Girl to raise money for Make-A-Wish!!!

Thursday, November 12 from 6:30pm – 10:00pm at Le Poisson Rouse, 158 Bleecker Street, NYC. There’s also a full open bar and food!

Please buy tickets (if you can’t go, send someone else!) Here’s the link:https://wishbacktothe80s.splashthat.com The tickets are only $200 each and are FULLY DEDUCTIBLE.

Don’t you miss the 80’s? I definitely do. Actually I don’t miss this sweater. Or this hairdo:

Make-A-Wish grants the wishes of children who are fighting life-threatening illnesses. The theory is that by granting the wish of a child who is very ill, that child feels a sense of empowerment – that they actually have some control over something in their lives when they have no control over their illnesses. That sense of empowerment and control helps drive children to seek the treatment they need and not lose hope.

Thank you for all your generosity and support and we look forward to seeing you at the party!

Stephanie and Steven Sladkus
