Look under Enformutab Vendotin

KEYNOTE905 Study is underway.

It’s called an Antibody-Drug Conjugate. An antibody targets key protein on a cancer cell. Lands on the cell. Attached to the antibody is chemotherapy. The chemo is linked by a linker molecule. Cancer cell disolves the link and the cancer cell commits apoptosis (cell death or cell suicide).

Think of it as a nasty form of uber eats for cancer. The chemo only goes to the cancer cells, and none other.

It’s a new day for cancer treatment.

You’re in my prayers.
