New technology could allow more cancer patients to benefit from immunotherapy Naoto Hirano, a professor in U of T’s Temerty Faculty of Medicine, and his colleagues have developed a more powerful way to identify immune cells capable of recognizing and eliminating cancer cells (photo by UHN StRIDe Team)
Professor Naoto Hirano of the Temerty Faculty of Medicine and collaborators have developed a new technology that rigorously and robustly identifies the immune cells that are capable of recognizing and eliminating cancer cells.
The findings, published in Nature Biotechnology, pave the way for novel immunotherapies to help more patients, regardless of their genetic ancestry, live longer and healthier lives.
