Israeli drug-free nanomedicine gives fresh hope in battling aggressive breast cancer (opens original article in a new tab)

Israeli scientists have created drug-free nanoparticles that halt aggressive breast cancer tumors in mice, offering potential for a chemical-free treatment and advancing to human trials.

• Scientists from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology developed nanoparticles that treat triple-negative breast cancer in mice without chemotherapy or drugs.
• The nanoparticles, called MPsomes, block macrophages from feeding tumors, allowing other immune cells to attack and shrink tumors.
• The technology uses safe materials and could advance to human clinical trials, with the researchers also exploring treatments for other diseases.
