**Why More and More Foreigners Are Choosing China for CAR-T Cell Therapy**

CAR-T

In recent years, China’s advancements in cell therapy, particularly CAR-T therapy, have been remarkable, attracting numerous international patients seeking treatment. With its cutting-edge technology, reasonable costs, and outstanding efficacy, China has become a preferred destination for cancer patients worldwide. Today, we will explore why an increasing number of foreign patients choose to come to China for cell therapy.

**The Rise of CAR-T Therapy: China’s Advantages**

First, CAR-T therapy is a personalized immunotherapy that specifically targets blood-related cancers such as lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and leukemia. By engineering a patient’s own T-cells to recognize and attack cancer cells, CAR-T therapy has shown significant efficacy, especially in patients with advanced cancer.

China’s advantages in cell therapy can be summarized into three key points:

  1. **Technological Expertise**: China has accumulated extensive experience in CAR-T therapy, particularly in top hospitals in major cities like Shanghai and Beijing. These institutions boast world-class medical teams and advanced treatment systems, providing international patients with high-quality treatment plans that ensure global leading outcomes.

  2. **Affordable Costs**: While CAR-T therapy can cost millions of dollars in countries like the U.S. and Europe, the treatment in China is much more affordable, usually about one-seventh to one-tenth of the cost in the U.S. This affordability makes China an attractive option for many international patients.

  3. **Shorter Waiting Times**: In Western countries, patients often wait several months for CAR-T therapy, whereas in China, many hospitals can complete the entire process — from diagnosis to cell infusion — in just a few weeks. This is crucial for patients with urgent medical needs.

**Real-Life Cases: Why Foreign Patients Choose China**

Several real-life cases clearly demonstrate why international patients are increasingly seeking treatment in China.

– **Ethan from Singapore**

  Ethan had been battling cancer for nearly ten years, trying various treatments globally with little success. Eventually, he decided to seek treatment in China. After a thorough evaluation at Jiahui International Hospital in Shanghai, Ethan received a personalized CAR-T therapy plan. Within just four weeks, his cancer cells had significantly decreased, and his health began to improve, along with his weight. Ethan remarked, “The treatment in China is not only effective but also much more affordable than in Singapore.”

– **A Russian Patient’s Story**

  Borzinkov, a 70-year-old patient with high-risk advanced multiple myeloma, had experienced multiple treatment failures before learning about China’s CAR-T therapy. He traveled to China for treatment, successfully completed cell collection, and received CAR-T infusion. Just 13 days later, he was discharged, and his follow-up results have been very promising. He chose China not only for the lower costs but also because of the shorter waiting time.

These cases illustrate that international patients in China can receive high-quality, effective treatment at more affordable rates and with faster recovery times. So far, patients from countries like Russia, Singapore, Malaysia, and others have undergone CAR-T therapy in China and achieved significant results, with many experiencing complete remission within months, with no signs of cancer after treatment.

**China’s Leading Position and Future Prospects**

China has already established itself as a global leader in CAR-T therapy, accounting for over 50% of the world’s clinical trials in this field. Chinese researchers and doctors excel not only in the basic research and clinical applications of CAR-T therapy but also in managing side effects such as CRS and neurotoxicity.

In cities like Shanghai, Wuhan, and Beijing, doctors provide cutting-edge treatment to international patients daily, consistently delivering excellent outcomes. As China’s medical system continues to advance, more and more international patients are choosing China as their destination for treatment.

**Conclusion**

The reasons why foreign patients are choosing China for cell therapy are clear: China excels in technology, offers reasonable treatment costs, and delivers outstanding results. As the world becomes more aware of the progress in China’s healthcare system, more patients will seek advanced medical care in China. In particular, China’s breakthroughs in cell therapy will continue to attract cancer patients from across the globe.
