Immunotherapy is a type of treatment in which the patient’s own immune system is activated to seek out and destroy cancer cells in the body. There are various types of immunotherapy. The team led by Prof. Zwi Berneman is using its knowledge of the cells in the immune system and the behaviour of cancer cells to develop cellular immunotherapies and make them available to patients.

In late 2016 Margot, Katrien and Marijke’s Dad suddenly fell ill. The diagnosis was lymphoma. After chemotherapy he was better for a while, but in 2017 he had a relapse. He was able to receive an experimental treatment at UZA, but ultimately died in late 2018. Nevertheless, his three daughters are very grateful to UZA. They tell their story in this testimonial.
