Biologic therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses substances made from living organisms or substances created in a lab that mimic natural immune components to help the body fight cancer. These therapies may strengthen the immune system, slow the growth of cancer cells, or block signals that help tumors develop. Biologic therapy includes treatments such as monoclonal antibodies, growth factors, cytokines, and vaccines. Immunotherapy and targeted therapy are considered types of biologic therapy and may be used alone or in combination with one another or with other cancer treatments, depending on each patient’s diagnosis and care plan.Biologic therapies are often given through an infusion or injection in an outpatient setting. Your care team will determine the most appropriate type of biologic therapy for your condition and will monitor your response closely, helping manage any side effects and adjusting treatment as needed.

Treatments Bispecific T-Cell Engager Therapy (BiTE Therapy)

Bispecific T-cell engager therapy, also called BiTE therapy, is an innovative form of immunotherapy that helps the body identify and destroy cancer cells. BiTE therapies work by bringing a patient’s T-cells into direct contact with cancer cells so the immune system can attack them more effectively. This treatment is most often used for certain blood cancers such as lymphoma and leukemia, particularly when the disease is aggressive or has not responded to standard therapies.The Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders is proud to be the first provider of BiTE therapy in Tarrant County. Our medical oncology team was the first in the county to treat a patient with BiTE therapy for aggressive lymphoma, representing one of the newest and most promising treatment options available for patients with advanced blood cancers. Our leadership in bringing forward advanced therapies reflects our ongoing commitment to innovation, expertise, and exceptional patient care.BiTE therapy is delivered through an infusion with close monitoring by oncology-trained nurses and physicians. Your care team will determine the treatment schedule and support you through each step, managing side effects and assessing your response to ensure the therapy remains safe and effective.

Services Cancer Screenings

Offered at 21 Locations

Cancer screenings are important tools for detecting cancer early, often before symptoms develop. Early detection can lead to more effective treatment options and improved long-term outcomes. Depending on your age, personal history, and risk factors, your care team may recommend screenings such as blood tests or imaging studies to monitor your health and identify concerns as early as possible. The Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders offers accessible screening opportunities throughout the year to support early detection and preventive care.

Treatments Chemotherapy

Offered at 19 Locations

Chemotherapy is a systemic therapy that uses medications to kill fast-growing cancer cells or stop them from dividing. Depending on the diagnosis, chemotherapy may be used alone or alongside other treatments, including surgery, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy. Because it circulates throughout the body, chemotherapy can help treat cancer cells that have spread beyond the original tumor site.Many chemotherapy drugs are available, and each works differently. Side effects can occur, ranging from mild to more serious, and your care team will carefully monitor your response and adjust treatment as needed.Chemotherapy is administered under the direction of medical oncologists; physicians specially trained in diagnosing and treating cancer. After medical school, these specialists complete at least three years of residency and often an additional three-year fellowship in oncology. At The Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders, our physicians pair advanced medical expertise with a strong commitment to whole-person care, providing supportive services and resources to help patients and their families through every step of treatment.

Services Clinical Trials & Research

Offered at 11 Locations

Clinical trials and research programs offer patients access to innovative cancer treatments that are being studied for safety and effectiveness. By participating in a clinical trial, patients may receive promising therapies earlier while helping researchers learn more about how to prevent, detect, and treat cancer. Providing clinical trial opportunities reflects a commitment to high-quality, evidence-based care, supported by a team trained to follow rigorous safety and monitoring standards. Clinical trials allow patients to explore new treatment options close to home, with the support of a dedicated oncology and research team guiding them every step of the way.

Services Fertility Preservation Counseling

Offered at 22 Locations

Some cancer treatments can affect fertility, making it more difficult to become pregnant or have biological children in the future. Fertility preservation counseling helps patients understand how their diagnosis and treatment plan may impact reproductive health and explores available options for protecting fertility before treatment begins. During this consultation, patients meet with specialists who review medical history, discuss the timing of cancer therapy, explain fertility preservation methods, and coordinate referrals to reproductive experts when needed. The goal is to ensure patients have the information and support they need to make informed decisions about their future family-planning goals.Fertility preservation may be appropriate for individuals of any gender and at any age. Options may include egg or embryo freezing, sperm banking, ovarian tissue preservation, or treatments that help safeguard reproductive function during cancer therapy. Your oncology team will help determine the safest timing for these procedures and work with fertility specialists to minimize delays in cancer treatment.

Services Genetic Counseling & Testing

Offered at 22 Locations

Genetic counseling and testing help identify whether a person has an inherited risk for certain types of cancer. During a genetic counseling visit, a certified genetic counselor reviews your personal and family history of cancer, discusses whether the pattern suggests a hereditary condition, and determines whether genetic testing may be helpful. While most cancers are not inherited, about 10 percent are linked to genetic mutations that can be passed down in families. Understanding your risk can help guide screening, prevention, and treatment decisions for you and your loved ones, and in some cases, the results of genetic testing can also influence which cancer treatments may be most effective. Genetic testing is usually done with a simple blood draw or saliva sample. If a hereditary cancer risk is identified, genetic counselors work closely with your medical team to create a personalized plan that may include earlier or more frequent screenings, risk-reducing strategies, or other preventive care. Genetic counseling can also help inform family members who may share the same inherited risk.At The Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders, our certified genetic counselors work closely with patients and families to understand hereditary cancer risk and guide next steps. They partner with CCBD oncologists, surgeons, and primary care providers to create personalized screening and prevention plans. Many patients are referred by their doctor, but individuals with questions about inherited cancer risk are encouraged to speak with their care team about scheduling a genetic counseling appointment. 

Services Hematology

Offered at 21 Locations

Hematology focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system. Hematologists care for patients with both benign (non-cancerous) blood disorders and blood cancers, helping identify the cause of symptoms such as anemia, bleeding issues, clotting problems, or abnormal blood counts. They use specialized testing to understand how the blood is functioning and develop personalized treatment plans that may include medications, infusions, transfusions, or other targeted therapies.

Treatments Hormone Therapy

Offered at 21 Locations

Hormone therapy is a type of cancer treatment that works by changing or blocking the natural hormones that certain cancers depend on to grow. Some cancers, when hormone sensitive, use hormones as signals to grow or spread. Hormone therapy may lower hormone levels in the body, block hormones from reaching cancer cells, or prevent cancer cells from reacting to those hormones. When testing shows that a tumor is hormone sensitive, hormone therapy can help slow or stop cancer growth, reduce the risk of recurrence, or shrink a tumor before other treatments. Hormone therapy may be used alone or combined with treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or targeted therapies, depending on each patient’s diagnosis and overall care plan.Depending on your specific situation, hormone therapy may be given as pills, injections, or through other delivery methods. Your care team will determine whether hormone therapy is appropriate, select the right approach for your cancer type, and monitor your response closely while helping manage any side effects.

Services Imaging

Offered at 22 Locations

Imaging plays a critical role in cancer care by creating detailed pictures of the inside of the body. These images help detect cancer early, determine whether it has spread, guide treatment decisions, and monitor how well therapy is working. Your care team may use imaging studies to evaluate symptoms, understand the exact location of a tumor, plan surgery or radiation therapy, or watch for signs of cancer returning. Imaging is also an important part of long-term surveillance, helping detect recurrence early and supporting ongoing follow-up care. Early and accurate imaging can make treatment more effective and give patients more options for care.Diagnostic imaging includes many different tools such as CT scans, MRI, ultrasound, X-rays, and nuclear medicine studies. Each type of imaging provides unique information that helps your care team understand what is happening inside the body and choose the most appropriate next steps.
