Biomimetic nanovaccine-mediated multivalent IL-15 self-transpresentation (MIST) for potent and safe cancer immunotherapy
​
Oct 24, 2023
​
Wang et al. developed biomimetic nanovaccine with multivalent interleukin-15 self-transpresentation (biNV-IL-15) that allows spatiotemporal manipulation of therapeutic T cells, elicits broad spectrum antigen-specific T cell responses, and promotes cures in multiple syngeneic tumor models with minimal systemic side effects.
