AI Technical Summary
Traditional cancer therapies, such as chemotherapy and radiation, are inadequate for treating cancer and often associated with severe side effects, while existing cancer immunotherapies do not demonstrate a robust immune response.
Administering xenogeneic antigen presenting cells derived from swine expressing alpha-1,3 galactosyltransferase to patients via intratumoral injection, which can trigger a specific immune response against tumors, including solid cancers resistant to chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
The method induces an effective immune response against tumors, including abscopal effects, and can be administered in combination with other anti-cancer therapies, providing a robust treatment option with reduced side effects.
