Scientists created new medications to suppress PD-1 and activate the body’s immune system to combat cancer after its discovery.
Cancer Therapy
Researchers at Scripps Research have recently discovered that when taken with checkpoint inhibitors, the immunosuppressive medication ruxolitinib, which is licenced, enhanced T-cell responses and increased the drugs’ ability to fight cancer.
Intratumoral therapy, in which cancer drugs are injected directly into tumors
Washington State University has developed a new technology for the development of cells using a bioreactor for cancer therapy. this technique develops cancer-detecting white blood cells (WBC) which supports immunotherapy.
Researchers at Washington State University have created a bioreactor the size of a minifridge that can produce T cells at 95% of their maximal development rate, which is around 30% quicker than what is possible with existing technology. They developed it using T cells from cattle. They expect it will function similarly on human cells.
