Cancer therapy

A*STAR researchers discover a mechanism that fires up the metabolism of cancer-killing immune cells, paving the way for future cancer immunotherapies.

A novel polymer improves the effectiveness of chemotherapeutics against drug-resistant tumors.

Just because a molecular target resides inside a cancer cell does not mean that it cannot be targeted by antibodies, says Qi Zeng, founder of A*STAR spin-off company Intra-ImmuSG.

A*STAR scientists have identified a microRNA that can potentially be targeted for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.
