Abstract
Our expanding knowledge of the immune system is guiding a new era of targeted anticancer therapies. Here, we describe our recent work on a novel class of anticancer agents termed ImmTACs. These molecules combine the power of picomolar-affinity TCR-based antigen recognition with the immune-activating potential of an anti-CD3 antibody fragment, to potently redirect T-cell killing to tumor cells.Entities:
