Dr Christopher Locher, Versatope Therapeutics, explains why bacterial extracellular vesicles are ideally suited for recombinant vaccines because target antigens can be expressed as fusion proteins and targeted to the lumen, membrane or surface of the vesicles. These nano-size vesicles represent a potentially safe and simple subunit vaccine delivery platform that…
A report has shown that the immuno-oncology drug discovery outsourcing market is set to be worth $2563 million by 2030.
While the introduction of novel immunotherapies to combat and treat cancer has advanced patient care greatly, ever more effective solutions continue to be required. Here, Dr Edmond Chan, Senior Director, EMEA Therapeutic Area Lead, Haemato-Oncology at Janssen Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA), explores how T-cell redirecting bispecific antibodies (TRBAs)…
In this exclusive Q&A, Dr Veysel Kayser, Associate Professor at the University of Sydney, Australia, outlines why monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are such an important tool to combat cancer. He also relates his recent research, as well as the latest trends in the industry.
A new high-throughput approach has shown how patients whose tumours express CD58 are more likely to respond to CAR T-cell therapy.
Researchers have found how tumours can avoid the immune system and cancer immunotherapies, including CAR T-cell therapies.
The approach mimics the physical forces exerted by T cells as they crawl over host cells, could help scientists develop more effective cancer immunotherapies.
A new study has shown that lactate, a metabolic byproduct produced during exercise, could augment current cancer immunotherapies.
New study finds that using CRISPR to block RASA2 gene makes T cells more resilient against cancer.
Researchers have discovered a way to ignite T cells, potentially increasing the scope and success of T cell-based immunotherapy.
The study describes how oncolytic virotherapy can work with existing immunotherapy techniques, boosting the immune capacity to effectively target and destroy cancer cells.
Scientists have identified and synthesised a small molecule that could be a more accessible and affective alternative to an antibody that treats a wide range of cancers.
Researchers have developed a novel label-free method named tomographic phase microscopy in flow cytometry for measuring intracellular lipid droplets in 3D.
The monoclonal antibody 19A11 binds E-cadherin, a protein that helps cells stick together, especially in epithelial layers that line the skin, the gut and other organs.
