A novel strategy for treatment of bladder cancer: Antibody-drug conjugates [PDF]
In the past, there was no second-line chemotherapeutic agent suitable for use when urothelial carcinoma (UC) progressed to platinum-resistant UC. However, recently, several new treatment options, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors or targeted therapy ...

Imaging DNA damage in vivo using γH2AX-targeted immunoconjugates
DNA damage responses (DDRs) occur during oncogenesis and therapeutic responses to DNA damaging cytotoxic drugs. Thus, a real-time method to image DNA damage in vivo would be useful to diagnose cancer and monitor its treatment.
