Cancer cell associated glycans as targets for immunotherapy

Oncoimmunology. 2015 Jul 15;5(1):e1061177. doi: 10.1080/2162402X.2015.1061177. eCollection 2016.

Abstract

Therapeutic anti-glycan antibodies for cancer treatment are limited, in spite of the differential glycophenotype of cancer cells and associated biology. We have generated anti-Le glycan antibodies with clinical potential and multifaceted functionality. Increased understanding of all aspects of glycomic research will ensure the continued development of glycan-targeted immunotherapeutics.
