Engineered Nanoparticles Improve Immune Response to Photothermal Therapy for Cancer
Neuroblastoma is a severe form of cancer and accounts for 15% of all cancer related deaths among children. However, the current modalities of treating this cancer have limited efficacy and are deficient in preventing recurrence. This can be attributed to the heterogeneous and immunosuppressive nature of the cancer coupled with low neoantigen expression. Researchers...

T cells targeted against multiple antigens for cancer treatment
­GW researchers developed a cell therapy platform to manufacture multi-antigen-specific immune cell products for treating cancer. Tumors often are sheltered from attack by a patient's immune system. One problem is immune cells at the tumor may be dysfunctional, so they are unable to recognize and eliminate the tumor cells. Current gold-standard...
