TIL Therapy

TIL (Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte) therapy is an immunotherapy that harnesses a patient’s own immune cells to fight cancer. It involves extracting immune cells called lymphocytes from the tumor, growing and activating them in the lab to become stronger fighters, then reintroducing them into the patient’s bloodstream. These enhanced cells target and attack cancer cells more effectively. TIL therapy is particularly useful for certain cancers like melanoma and has the potential to offer durable responses. It represents a personalized treatment approach by leveraging the body’s natural immune response to combat cancer more effectively.
