Swedish Researchers Develop New Antibody for Cancer Treatment

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have developed a new antibody that shows promise for the treatment of cancer.

The antibody, called H80, targets a protein called CD166, which is expressed on the surface of cancer cells.

When H80 binds to CD166, it triggers the immune system to attack and destroy the cancer cells.

In a study published in the journal Nature Medicine, researchers showed that H80 was effective in killing cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.

The antibody also had a good safety profile, with no significant side effects observed in animal studies.

The researchers are currently conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of H80 in humans.

If the clinical trials are successful, H80 could become a new treatment option for cancer patients.
