Can CAR T-cell Therapy Cause Kidney Problems? In this informative video, we will discuss the potential side effects of CAR T-cell therapy, particularly focusing on kidney health. CAR T-cell therapy is a type of immunotherapy that modifies a patient’s T cells to enhance their ability to target and destroy cancer cells, making it a promising treatment for certain cancers like lymphoma and leukemia. While this therapy can be effective, it is essential to understand the possible side effects, including those related to kidney function. We will cover the nature of kidney problems that may arise during CAR T-cell treatment, including acute kidney injury. Additionally, we will explore the factors that may contribute to these kidney issues, such as the use of specific medications and the impact of infections in patients with compromised immune systems. Monitoring kidney health is vital throughout the treatment process, and healthcare providers implement regular assessments to ensure patients remain safe. Join us as we break down the complexities of CAR T-cell therapy and its effects on kidney health. Understanding these risks can help patients and caregivers navigate this treatment journey more effectively.
