Dr Maharaj explains the ways he is harnessing the power of the innate immune system to treat cancer.
Dr Maharaj spent many years developing expertise in the field of bone marrow transplants. Despite the successes of this type of treatment, he was also acutely aware of the shortcomings in terms of the patient experience, and particularly long-term side effects, which can include further diagnoses of cancer. Based on the realisation that a significant factor in the success of transplants is the status of the patient’s immune system and its response to the treatment, he set off to develop a less toxic way to engender that same immune response.
