With the help of Dr. Carl H. June, Alf underwent an <\/span><\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/parade.com\/474801\/franklalli\/a-mouse-that-roared-lori-alfs-fight-against-cancer-and-the-miracle-cure-that-saved-her\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">experimental treatment<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\"> that used her body\u2019s own immune system to fight the cancer cells. As part of this treatment, researchers took white blood cells from Alf\u2019s body and turned them into cells that were able to target and destroy cancer cells. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">These white blood cells were combined with a protein known as chimeric antigen receptor to help them recognize myeloma cells. Within two months of undergoing immunotherapy, Alf\u2019s body was free of cancer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">One of the advantages of immunotherapy is that it does not carry the risk of graft-versus-host disease, a condition that can be life-threatening. This occurs when the body rejects transplanted stem cells that come from a donor. Since the cells used in immunotherapy are from the patient, there is no risk of rejection. Researchers believe that immunotherapy can be used to effectively and safely treat more than two dozen cancers.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">If you would like more information on the Issels non-toxic immunotherapy for cancer, please contact <\/span><\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/issels.com\/questionnaire\/request-issels-info.aspx\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">Issels<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">.
