These Tiny Beads Destroy Tumors

The tiny polymer beads contain cytokine-producing ARPE-19 cells that stimulate the immune system to attack the tumor. The novel cytokine delivery system produced an immune response that’s essentially a “drug factory” that pumps out cytokine. The researchers have used the technology to eradicate ovarian and colorectal cancers in rodents, and hope to shift to human patients soon. Here is a video with more information.
