Cancer Gene Therapy
Research from Stanford University in cancer gene therapy provides new insights
October 21st, 2008
Scientists discuss in 'Multimodality imaging of IL-18--binding protein-Fc therapy of experimental lung metastasis' new findings in cancer gene therapy. According to recent research published in the journal Clinical Cancer Research, "Interleukin (IL)-18 plays important roles in cancer progression and metastasis. The goal of this study is to identify cell lines that are most sensitive to stand alone IL-18-binding protein (IL-18bp)-Fc treatment, to study the pharmacokinetics and tumor targeting efficiency of IL-18bp-Fc, and to evaluate the efficacy of IL-18bp-Fc in treating breast cancer experimental lung metastasis by multimodality imaging." "Reverse...
