Santa Maria Hospital implements bispecific antibody immunotherapy

The Santa Maria Hospital in Terni has implemented a comprehensive clinical pathway for patients undergoing immunotherapy with bispecific antibodies. This advanced therapeutic strategy in oncohematology uses antibodies to target the immune system specifically against tumor cells, particularly for certain blood cancers.

The treatment process involves a multidisciplinary approach integrating several hospital departments, including Oncohematology, Internal Medicine, Hospital Pharmacy, and Anesthesia and Resuscitation. This integrated model aims to improve therapeutic efficacy, patient quality of life, and access to cutting-edge medical advancements.

Regional officials noted that the introduction of these advanced therapeutic pathways demonstrates the clinical competence of the local healthcare system and its ability to provide citizens with modern treatment opportunities.
