Baptist MD Anderson Cancer Center opened a dedicated Cellular Therapy and Stem Cell Transplant Unit on Thursday at Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville. Located in the Weaver Tower, the 24-room inpatient unit supports patients undergoing treatment for blood cancers and other complex conditions.
The specialized facility was established through an endowment by grateful patients Patricia and Bob Paquette. It accommodates patients receiving therapies such as chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy, which temporarily suppresses the immune system and requires specialized monitoring during stays ranging from several days to several weeks.
