Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Elizabeth E M Menendez"
- Elizabeth E M Menendez's research primarily focuses on enhancing the therapeutic efficacy of antibodies, specifically in the context of targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in cancer treatment.
- In her study, Menendez investigates a novel approach using Probody therapeutics that remain inactive until they are activated by proteases in the tumor microenvironment, thus minimizing off-target effects.
- The findings demonstrate that this tumor-specific activation strategy allows for reduced toxicity while regaining full therapeutic potency, indicating a significant advancement in the use of antibodies for cancer therapy.
