I don't know why you need this information, but this is the aerodynamics of a beaver

[Avi Roy @agingroy]

A new cancer drug works like a molecular handcuff. One arm grabs a passing immune cell. The other grabs the tumor. It clamps them together and forces the kill, whether the cancer agrees to the meeting or not.

That trick cleared blood cancers a decade ago. Blinatumomab still does it in leukemia.

Solid tumors blocked it for one reason: the old handcuffs could only grab a protein sitting on the cell’s surface, and solid tumors hide their tells inside the cell.

This one reads the inside. Its grabbing arm is built from a T-cell receptor, so it spots the scraps of internal proteins that every cell puts on display. In a phase 1 study, 61 patients, it shrank head and neck, melanoma, and lung tumors that surface-only drugs never reached.

Solid tumors are most cancer. This is the first handcuff that fits them.
