Scientists wipe out deadly brain tumors in every mouse tested with new cancer therapy
Scientists wipe out deadly brain tumors in every mouse tested with new cancer therapy
Scientists at UC San Francisco have developed a powerful new cancer therapy that remains inactive until it reaches the brain, where it switches on to attack deadly tumors. The engineered immune cells, called B-SYNC CAR-T cells, completely eliminated diffuse midline glioma (DMG), an aggressive childhood brain cancer that is almost always fatal within a year, in two mouse models.
