News 24 "Trojans" a new treatment that eliminates cancer until an advanced stage

British researchers and doctors have been able to produce a new treatment that would dramatically change the elimination of cancer, even if it reached an advanced stage of spread in the body of the injured.

British scientists have produced a "toxic antibody" called "Trojan horse", a chemical treatment that can kill many types of cancer cells, according to the report published on the Science Alert website.

Researchers, who follow the London Cancer Research Institute and the "Real Marsden Foundation" of the National Institutes of Health, claim that their new treatment would be worth going through in a series of years. clinical trials to a variety of patients because it is likely to be very effective. A significant change in the treatment of this disease.

According to the report, clinical trials involving 147 patients were conducted to evaluate the potential benefits of the new treatment and the risk of side effects.

The new drug, tisotumab vedotin, is an antibody and a cytotoxic component that can kill deadly cancer cells in the human body.

"It is exciting in this treatment that it is a completely new mechanism," says Johan de Bono, an oncologist at the Institute for Cancer Research. "It works like a Trojan horse to infiltrate and kill cancer cells from within."

"Our first study showed that this drug could potentially treat a large number of types of cancer, especially those with low survival rates."

People with bladder cancer received the highest number of responses, with 27% of registered volunteers stabilized and 7% less endometrial cancer.

"We urgently need innovative therapies such as those that can fight cancer in new ways and remain effective even against tumors that have become resistant to therapeutic standards," said Paul Warkman, executive director of the Institute for Research on Cancer. the cancer.
