What does a medical oncologist do?
A medical oncologist diagnoses cancer and treats it with medicines — chemotherapy, targeted therapy, hormonal therapy and immunotherapy — and coordinates overall cancer care along with surgeons and radiation oncologists.
What is CAR-T cell therapy?
CAR-T cell therapy is an advanced immunotherapy in which a patient's own T-cells are collected, genetically re-engineered to recognise cancer cells, and infused back to attack the cancer. It is used in selected relapsed or refractory blood cancers.
What cancers and blood disorders are treated?
Dr. Varun Rajan treats solid-organ cancers and blood cancers such as leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma, as well as benign blood disorders, offering chemotherapy, immunotherapy, BMT and CAR-T where appropriate.
