Doctors from Penn say they just CURED CANCER in two men!

For Leukemia and Lymphoma sufferers, this is HUGE NEWS. University of Penn doctors say THEY HAVE CURED patients with blood cancers. Miracles ARE happening.

“CAR therapy is at the same time cell therapy, gene therapy, and immunotherapy. It represents a radical departure from all forms of medicine in existence until now,” Michel Sadelain, co-founder of Juno Therapeutics, told The Scientist.

A CAR-T therapy consists of the infusion of engineered T cells that carry a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) on the cell membrane. The external domain of this receptor is designed to recognize a specific molecule on a tumor cell. When this happens, the internal signaling domain of the molecule is activated, stimulating the T cell to attack the cancer cell. 

Here's more from Penn Medicine on their study.
