ArticleCombining precision bispecific antibodies with targeted radiotherapy
Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) is a promising cancer treatment gaining recognition in precision oncology. It utilises radiolabelled antibodies to deliver targeted radiation to tumours, with success in hematologic cancers. However, its use in solid tumours has been limited by off-target radiation and toxicity, with few clinical trials advancing beyond phase II. Alexander ...

ArticleLooking beyond traditional oncogenic pathways to break cancer resistance
Drug resistance is the leading cause of poor clinical outcomes for cancer patients undergoing targeted therapies. While current treatments are designed to inhibit targets along established oncogenic signalling cascades, a new, exciting approach is to address non-oncogene-related resistance mechanisms that operate in parallel to the “classic” oncogene pathways. Blocking transcriptional ...
