Battle against Cancer Advanced by T-Cell-Engaging Bispecific Antibodies

Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute in Florida say they have engineered a new type of anticancer antibody, one intended to enhance nature's cancer-fighting strategies by attracting killer T cells directly to cancer cells covered with a distinctive protein.Dubbed T-cell-engaging bispecific antibodies, these cancer combatants attack malignant cells but reportedly leave healthy cells untouched. That's due to their selective targeting system, which zeroes in on a protein found on the s
