IIT Delhi Researchers Discover Promising Treatment for Aggressive Brain Tumors

2024-08-31

Researchers at IIT Delhi have developed a novel treatment for glioblastoma, an aggressive

brain tumor with limited treatment options. Led by PhD student Vidit Gaur and Associate

Professor Jayanta Bhattacharyya, the team created "Immunosomes," a nanoformulation that

combines a CD40 agonist antibody with RRX-001. In preclinical trials, this treatment

eradicated tumors in mice and generated long-lasting immune memory, preventing future

tumor recurrence. This breakthrough offers hope for glioblastoma patients, with plans to

advance to human clinical trials
