flag A new antibody therapy shows promise against aggressive, hard-to-treat breast cancers in lab and animal tests.

flag A new "triple-engineered" antibody developed by King’s College London shows promise in treating aggressive, treatment-resistant breast cancers, including triple-negative breast cancer, which affects about 15% of patients and lacks common treatment targets. flag In lab and animal studies, the therapy effectively bound to cancer cells and activated immune cells both within tumors and in the bloodstream, overcoming immune suppression and significantly slowing tumor growth. flag Researchers say the approach could offer a major advance for patients with limited options, especially younger women and Black women disproportionately affected by triple-negative breast cancer. flag The therapy is still experimental, with clinical trials pending, but may also apply to ovarian and endometrial cancers due to shared molecular targets.
