oncology.pencis.com/”>The study found the drug, called MOv18 IgE, shrank a tumour in a patient with ovarian cancer and reported that it was well tolerated in patients.

oncology.pencis.com/”>The study by researchers from King’s College London and Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, and funded by cancer Research UK, tested whether a type of antibody called IgE could be used to treat human cancer.oncology.pencis.com/”/>

oncology.pencis.com/”>Conference-registration-euro/”>immunotherapy works by stimulating the body’s natural defence system to attack cancer.
oncology.pencis.com/”>Existing antibody drugs used in cancer belong to an antibody type called IgG, but IgE antibodies have not been tested in humans before.
oncology.pencis.com/”>IgE antibodies evolved to target parasites like worms and flukes, and IgG antibodies are involved in attacking bacteria and viruses in the body.
oncology.pencis.com/”>Lead author on the study, Professor James Spicer, professor of experimental cancer medicine at King’s College London and Consultant in Medical oncology at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust (GSTT), said: “IgE is a completely new form of antibody therapy which has shown great promise in this Phase I trial.

oncology.pencis.com/”>Co-author Sophia Karagiannis, professor of translational cancer immunology and Conference-registration-euro/”>immunotherapy at King’s College London, said: “Conference-registration-euro/”>immunotherapy has shown enormous potential recently but there are still people with cancer who do not respond to conventional therapy.
oncology.pencis.com/”>“This trial builds on our previous work into the biology of IgE, including experiments in the laboratory suggesting that IgE could be an effective treatment that can offer additional benefits to complement those of established IgG antibodies in the clinic.
oncology.pencis.com/”>“While we are still in the early stage of trials, our next steps will be to evaluate IgE in larger and different groups of patients and to continue studying how IgE antibodies are able to wake up the patient’s immune system to fight different cancers.”
