Roughly 620,000 new cases of lymphoma were diagnosed worldwide, according to the World Cancer Research Fund International's 2020 report. Survival rates have improved as advances develop in treatment, such as chimeric antigen receptor-T cell therapy (CAR-T cell therapy).
CAR-T cell therapy is a personalized treatment giving hope to patients diagnosed with various lymphomas.
"Lymphoma in plain terms is essentially a cancer of your immune system," says Dr. Madiha Iqbal, a Mayo Clinic hematologist and oncologist.
