Beating Lymphoma with CAR T Cell Therapy: Jami's Immunotherapy Story

Jami describes her 20+ year battle with cancer as a marathon. #CIM17 #PatientStories

But when standard treatment options failed ultimately to keep her advanced non-Hodgkin lymphoma at bay, she enrolled in an immunotherapy clinical trial and today is free of disease and able to look forward to the future. www.cancerresearch.org/patients.

This video is presented as part of the Cancer Research Institute 5th Annual Cancer Immunotherapy Month awareness campaign this June 2017. Help us raise awareness of the lifesaving potential of immunotherapy for all types of cancer. Let's fuel the next scientific discoveries and breakthrough treatments through learning, engagement, and storytelling. http://www.cancerresearch.org/june
