Summary

Description
English: The diagram above represents the process of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR), this is a method of immunotherapy, which is a growing practice in the treatment of cancer. The final result should be a production of equipped T-cells that can recognize and fight the infected cancer cells in the body.

1. T-cells (represented by objects labeled as 't') are removed from the patient's blood.
2. Then in a lab setting the gene that encodes for the specific antigen receptors is incorporated into the T-cells.
3. Thus producing the CAR receptors (labeled as c) on the surface of the cells.
4. The newly modified T-cells are then further harvested and grown in the lab.

5. After a certain time period, the engineered T-cells are infused back into the patient.
