Researchers have developed a method to track down the “Achilles' heel” of cancer cells that they believe could be used to design an effective personalized cancer treatment. They hope to test it in two years' time, according to a study published March 3 in the journal Science.

Researchers from MIT, Harvard University and University College London have found a way to locate unique markings within a cancerous tumor that they believe could allow the body’s immune system to target the disease.

Scientists Find Cancer's 'Achilles' Heel'

Researchers have developed a method to track down the “Achilles' heel” of cancer cells that they believe could be used to design an effective personalized cancer treatment. Researchers from MIT, Harvard University and University College London have found a way to locate unique markings within a cancerous tumor that they believe could allow the body’s immune system to target the disease. In the past, efforts at developing vaccines like this-ones that guide the immune system to eradicating tumors-have largely failed.

Scientists Just Made a Major Breakthrough in Personalized Cancer Treatment

Scientists at the University College London (UCL) have made a major breakthrough that may further cement so-called immunotherapies’ status as the most promising advance in cancer treatments in years. The cancer immunotherapy treatment space has blasted off in popularity over the last several years and led to a flurry of innovation in the biopharma sphere. Companies like Merck and Bristol-Myers Squibb introduced the pioneering drugs in this treatment category with their medications Keytruda and Opdivo, respectively.
