CAR-T Therapy for Burkitt Lymphoma at Sheba Medical Center
For patients diagnosed with Burkitt Lymphoma, one of the most aggressive and fast-growing types of lymphoma, timing and access to advanced treatment are critical.
Sheba Medical Center, one of the world’s leading hospitals, offers advanced CAR-T cell therapy, providing new hope for patients with relapsed or treatment-resistant disease.
Sheba combines rapid treatment access, cutting-edge immunotherapy, and extensive clinical expertise to manage even the most challenging and fast-progressing cases.
A Faster Path to Life-Saving Treatment
At Sheba, the entire CAR-T process is performed on-site, ensuring speed, precision, and optimal cell quality essential for aggressive diseases like Burkitt Lymphoma.
• Apheresis – collection of the patient’s T-cells
