| Video Discription | Every year, more than 100 kids in Northeast Ohio enter the doors of UH Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital only to find out they have cancer. That’s far too many. However, right in our backyard Northeast Ohio is home to incredible doctors, researchers and scientists who are saving children’s lives every day. 3News Laura Caso is peeling back the curtain and walking the hall of the cancer floors at UH Rainbow Babies in order to share stories that must be told. Dr. John Letterio is the Chief of Hematology and Oncology at UH Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital. He is passionate about curing children and setting them up to live their best lives no matter their diagnosis. “You’ll never make it [feel like] home but you can make it close to home,” said Dr. Letterio. “[This hospital] is an amazing place Laura, it really is.” UH Rainbow Babies and Children’s hospital treats kids dealing with pediatric cancers and blood disorders. The children are cared for by a team of doctors, nurses and staff who are doing everything they can to cure our kids and the treatments have evolved dramatically over time. “It was always surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy but today, immunotherapy is really changing the outlook for many patients. The biggest example is CAR T-cell therapy,” said Dr. Letterio. CAR T-cell therapy genetically modifies patient’s cells, then infuses them back to find the cancer cells and attack. According to Dr. Letterio, in four generations, the survivor rate has improved dramatically. “A child with leukemia had about a 10% chance of being a long-term survivor [and] fast forward now to 2022… a child with standard risk leukemia, the most common cancer that we see, has about a 90% chance of being a long-term survivor.” Laura Caso reports: https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/health/inside-university-hospitals-rainbow-babies-childrens-hospital-caring-cancer/95-f7ace7f2-4720-42eb-a8ca-db87bf9aa9b9 |
