Scientists have found a way to make one of the most aggressive brain tumors vulnerable to the immune system. A single injection of a modified virus can invade glioblastoma, kill cancer cells, and ...

The current path to CAR-T cell therapy is, by any measure, a logistical ordeal. A patient’s immune cells must be drawn out of the body, shipped to a specialized facility, genetically reprogrammed, ...

This figure shows T cell infiltration (green) and cell death (pink) in controls (left) and test tumors from CMV-infected mice after treatment with CMV peptides. Researchers at the University of ...

According to the results of the early study, published simultaneously in the New England Journal of Medicine, 92% of patients who received only an immune-based treatment to help their own immune ...

A redesigned cancer immunotherapy is showing striking early results after decades of disappointment with similar drugs. Researchers engineered a more powerful CD40 agonist antibody and changed how ...

A new discovery from researchers at The University of Texas at Austin and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center helps explain why some ...

A new wave of immuno-therapies is reshaping the fight against cancer, turning the body’s own immune system into a powerful ...

Scientists have built functional cancer-fighting immune cells directly inside living animals, skipping the expensive and time-consuming process of extracting a patient’s cells and engineering them in ...

For decades, large portions of the human genome were labeled "junk DNA." New research from Western University and London ...

Researchers have evidence that inside shark DNA are single chain antibodies that just might help cure cancer. These flexible, “sticky” antibodies can grab onto cancer cells remarkably well, and hold ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have discovered a promising new treatment approach for pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest and most treatment-resistant forms of cancer. The ...
