My mother had this done for her acute lymphoblastic leukemia. She has had leukemia twice, She went through normal chemo and a bone marrow transplant first time. Was a really rough 3-4 months but went into remission. Second time she was put into a trial for the CAR-T cells. It was 2-3 months of out patient and she only had a little bit of a headache and some slight nausea. Insane how different it was and she’s still in remission. There were 15 people in the trial and only 5 survived as it has a really aggressive autoimmune issues with random organs. It’s early days but it was mind blowing how easy it was compared to chemo.
