Biotechnology company BriaCell Therapeutics (OTCQB: BCTXF)
(TSX.V: BCT) recently presented data from its ongoing trial during the San
Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (“SABCS”), one of the largest breast cancer
conferences in the world. An article discussing the company reads, “The
December 6 conference poster session presentation showed safety and efficacy
results of BriaCell’s phase I/IIa targeted immunotherapy trial in patients with
advanced breast cancer, as well as the early safety data of the combination
study of Bria-IMT™ with KEYTRUDA®. KEYTRUDA® targets protein PD-1, which can
block immune system cells from fighting off tumor cells. KEYTRUDA® attempts to
“release the brakes” set in place by PD-1 and let the immune system do its
work. BriaCell believes that the combination of Bria-IMT™ with KEYTRUDA® will
be much more effective in killing the tumor cells compared with using either of
the drugs alone.”
