Josh's treatment commenced with the infusion of his personalized CAR T-cells. The immediate challenge was waiting for the therapy to take effect, with scans serving as the ultimate test. Before treatment, large tumors in his abdomen marked the visible evidence of his disease.
Eighteen months later, the results were astonishing. Follow-up PET scans revealed that all detectable tumors had disappeared, signifying a complete remission. For Josh, this meant reclaiming his life—no more medications, no more chemotherapy, just a single, life-changing treatment. The joy and relief were palpable, marking what he describes as an incredible milestone in his battle against cancer.
