I'm currently developing T-Cell Engagers for solid tumors. They are "eat me" signals that attach to cancer cells kill them. It is a very simple concept but can easily kill someone if they bind to normal cells. We make T-Cell Engagers that are inactive until they get to the tumor, reducing toxicity.

Yeah, my mom passed away from cancer a few years ago and so did both my wife’s parents…really tough. Luckily catching it early the prognosis isn’t too bad most of the time

yeah, she started treatment in late 2019 and man it was a rough stretch for about 6 months of chemo, then 3 months of and 7 weeks of 5 day a week radiation. needed to wait a year for surgery pray people don’t have to go through as much in the future
