María Natalia Gandur Quiroga: The present and future of bispecific antibodies for cancer therapy
María Natalia Gandur Quiroga shared on X:
“‘The present and future of bispecific antibodies for cancer therapy.’
Key findings:
- 14 bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) approved, 11 in oncology
- bsAbs enable unique mechanisms like dual receptor inhibition and immune cell engagement
- New formats: trispecifics, bsAb–drug conjugates and checkpoint inhibitors
- bsAbs in clinical trials are 75% for solid tumors, 25% for blood cancers
Future directions:
- Next-gen bsAbs (e.g., trispecifics) hold potential for more precise, effective treatments
- Emerging bsAbs target cancer through immune modulation and receptor activation”
