Chinami Oncology Internal Medicine Clinic
About
Chinami Cancer Internal Medicine Clinic, located in Kasuya-cho, Kasuya-gun, Fukuoka Prefecture, is a specialty clinic dedicated to cancer treatment. The clinic operates under the philosophy of "Overcoming cancer in Kyushu," maintaining a commitment to recovery even in cases of terminal cancer, and practicing a unique multimodal treatment approach. Central to its care is Autologous Cancer Antigen-pulsed Cell Therapy (AC-ACT), which involves cultivating monocytes collected from the patient's own blood, loading dendritic cells with cancer antigens, and co-culturing them with NKT cells before administration. This method has been published as an academic paper by clinic director Dr. Masanobu Kayami (M.D., Ph.D.), positioning it as a treatment grounded in evidence-based research. The clinic also combines gene targeting therapy using plasmid vectors and supplement therapy utilizing herb-derived polyphenols believed to inhibit cancer proliferation signaling pathways, constructing a comprehensive, individualized treatment strategy for each patient. Cell cultivation is conducted in a GMP-compliant facility equipped with HEPA filters, reflecting careful attention to quality control. English-speaking support is available, making the clinic accessible to patients whose primary language is not Japanese. Parking is also available for those traveling by car. The clinic is closed on Wednesdays, Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays, with consultations primarily held on weekdays.
