GermanyHealth - FAQ: We are helping patients go through and find innovative health solutions

GermanyHealth is a premier online platform and medical concierge service based in Munich that connects international patients with top-tier medical care for cancer in Germany. 

Dendritic-cell-therapy.de is a subdomain of GermanyHealth especially designed for patients with cancer.

We simplify medical tourism by organizing hospital bookings, fast-tracked appointments, and personalized treatment plans.

Frequently asked questions

Any query/confusion? Here’s a list of FAQ’s and their answers that might help.

“Yes, like all medical treatments, dendritic cell therapy and other immunotherapies can have side effects—but they are generally much milder compared to chemotherapy or radiation. Most patients experience only mild flu-like symptoms such as fatigue, fever, or soreness at the injection site.

However, these effects usually go away within a day or two. Serious side effects are rare, especially with dendritic cell therapy, because it works with your body’s natural immune system.

However, we closely monitor every patient and personalize the treatment to minimize risks as much as possible.”

  • Side effects exist but are typically mild.

  • Dendritic cell vaccine is known for being well-tolerated.

  • Monitoring and personalization reduce risks.

  • Compared to chemo or radiation, the body handles it much better.

To make sure your dendritic cell vaccination hits your type of cancer, an oncolytic viro-therapy to produce tumor antigens (we call it priming) is mandatory before. After the dendritic cells are loaded with your tumor antigens.

“The success rate of DCT depends strongly on the type and stage of your cancer, as well as your overall health and how your immune system responds. However, in some cancers like melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma, pancreatic cancer, proste cancer or certain lymphomas, immunotherapy has shown significant success—even complete remission in some cases.

For other cancers, it may be used to slow progression, improve quality of life, or support other treatments. That’s why we offer personalized evaluations to determine if this therapy is likely to be effective in your specific case. Hence the goal of GermanyHealth is always to find the best approach for your unique condition.”

The number of dendritic cell (DC) therapy cycles required can vary depending on the type of cancer, stage, patient’s immune response, and the specific protocol used by the treatment center. However, you need an oncolytic viro-therapy to expose the tumor antigens:

Most clinical protocols recommend:

2 to 6 cycles of dendritic cell vaccination often one cycle every 2–4 weeks.

Why Multiple Cycles Are Needed?

Immune Activation Takes Time.

  • Hence, this process strengthens gradually with repeated exposure to the tumor antigens.
  • Dendritic cells need to “educate” the immune system specifically T cells to recognize and attack cancer cells.

Memory T Cell Development

  • Repeated dosing helps create long-lasting immune memory, which is crucial for preventing recurrence.

Tumor Burden and Immune Suppression

  • Cancer can suppress immune function. Multiple cycles help overcome tumor-induced immune tolerance and sustain immune activation.

Monitoring and Adaptation

  • After each cycle, doctors evaluate immune markers (like cytotoxic T cell activity, cytokine levels) and tumor response (imaging or tumor markers).
    Depending on progress, further cycles may be added or adjusted.

“Unlike chemotherapy and radiation, which attack both cancer and healthy cells, immunotherapy works by training your own immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells specifically. Hence, this means fewer side effects in many cases and a more natural, long-term defense against cancer.

Chemotherapy and radiation are still effective and widely used, especially in fast-growing tumors, but immunotherapy can offer a more targeted approach—especially for cancers that are resistant to traditional treatments.

Though, iIn many cases, we use them together to maximize results, depending on what’s best for your individual case.”

Dendritic cell vaccination is safe. There are many clinical trials showing the safety. However, there is side effect like "having the feeling of getting kind of flue".

  • DCT only generally starts from €12.900 per cycle, depending on the vaccine complexity, amount of cycles and additional immunotherapies. However, that's why we need your reports first. Send it here: Contact

  • ICD Immungentic Cell Death with Newastle Virus can cost up to €16.000 per cycle.

  • Checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., pembrolizumab, nivolumab, tecentriq), often used in advanced cancers, can total around €235,000–€320,000 for a full course .

  • CAR‑T cell therapies (like Kymriah/Yescarta) are priced at €385,000–€485,000 (But is not without any risks!)

Dendritic Cell (DCT)Therapy is not yet FDA approved.

Seeking dendritic cell vaccination in Mexico or in Irland is becoming more common, especially among international patients looking for alternative or integrative treatments. However, not all clinics are created equal, and safety, licensing, and quality control can vary greatly. Here's what I recommend if you're seriously considering a clinic in Mexico & Irland:

  1. Medical Licensing & Accreditation

    • Ensure the clinic is licensed by COFEPRIS or Irish Authority (equivalent of the FDA).

    • Ask whether their lab is GMP-certified (Good Manufacturing Practice).

    • Check for affiliations with international medical bodies or universities.

  2. Physician Credentials

    • Confirm that the doctors are board-certified and trained in oncology or immunotherapy.

    • Ask about their experience specifically with dendritic cell therapy.

  3. Treatment Transparency

    • A reputable clinic should explain:

      • How the dendritic cells are prepared (e.g., in-house or outsourced)

      • Whether your cells are used (autologous) or donor-derived

      • The full treatment plan, expected outcomes, and follow-up care

    • They should provide a written cost estimate and not pressure you.

  4. Scientific Basis

    • The clinic should use validated protocols supported by research.

    • Ask for clinical outcome data if available (remission rates, safety record).

  5. Infection Control & Safety

    • The facility should follow strict hygiene protocols.

    • Ask where are they getting the dendritic cells from? Which is the laboratory?


⚠️ Red Flags:

  • Vague treatment descriptions like “immune boosting” without medical detail

  • No lab or physician info on the website

  • Claims of 100% success or “miracle cures”

  • Refusal to provide licenses, protocols, or lab certification

  • Asking for large payments upfront without documentation


🇲🇽 Is It Safe?

Some clinics in Mexico are safe and well-run, especially those in places like Tijuana, Cancun, or Mexico City, where medical tourism is strong.

However, others operate without proper oversight, and there are cases of unproven or unregulated therapies being marketed aggressively.

If you do your due diligence—and ideally consult with your own doctor or an independent advisor—it can be a viable option. But do not rely on advertising alone.

Ask questions, get documentation, and compare with options in countries like Germany, where regulation is stricter.
