Drug that uses the body's cells to blast cancer | Mail Online

Drug that uses the body's cells to blast cancer | Mail Online:

"Cancer patients have seen their tumours blasted into submission by a new drug which harnesses the power of their own immune cells.

The 'serial killer' treatment completely eliminated some tumours and shrunk others resistant to existing therapies.

Further successful trials could lead to blinatumomab being on the market in less than five years."
