一名北爱尔兰妇女在前往伦敦接受CAR-T疗法后死亡, A Northern Irish woman died after traveling to London for CAR-T therapy unavailable in her home region, sparking calls for faster local access.

凯瑟琳·谢里是一位42岁的阿尔马赫三孩的母亲, 在伦敦接受CAR-T细胞治疗淋巴瘤后于5月去世, Catherine Sherry, a 42-year-old mother of three from Armagh, died in May after receiving CAR-T cell therapy for lymphoma in London, where it was unavailable in Northern Ireland. 她的家人和倡导者说,为了治疗,需要旅行,这造成了严重的身心压力,导致她死亡。 Her family and advocates say the need to travel for treatment caused significant emotional and physical strain, contributing to her death. 他们敦促当地更快地获得治疗,批评预测的2030/31年的推广太慢,尤其是与联合王国和爱尔兰其他地区相比。 They are urging faster access to the therapy locally, criticizing a projected 2030/31 rollout as too slow, especially compared to the rest of the UK and Ireland. 虽然北爱尔兰卫生部确认计划扩大贝尔法斯特信托基金的专家血液学服务,包括新建一个区域病房,但CAR-T疗法仍只能通过国家专家小组转诊到指定的联合王国中心。 While the Northern Ireland Department of Health confirmed plans to expand specialist haematology services at the Belfast Trust, including a new regional ward, CAR-T therapy remains available only through national expert panel referrals to designated UK centers.
