Combining forces to hit cancer stem cells: TRAIL-lymphocytes and EpCAMxCD3 bispecific antibody show efficacy against pancreatic cancer

TRAIL selectively kills cancer cells while bispecific antibody EpCAMxCD3 guides effector lymphocytes to cancer cells. Arming of ex vivo constructed TRAIL-lymphocytes with EpCAMxCD3 enhances contact time and affinity between lymphocytes and tumor cells and enforces tumor elimination. This boosts endo...
