“Beautiful video. To activate this cell, you need a protein called IL-15.
Anktiva is that protein.
It is approved for a subset of bladder cancer. But it works on your immune system, and your NK cells kill all cancers regardless of the type!
Go figure!”
Bullish also shared a post by Massimo, adding:
“And guess what multiplies these Killer cells?
A drug just got approved last year called ANKTIVA Bioshield ‘Lymphocytes- stimulator’ by ImmunityBio, Inc., Pat Soon-Shiong spent the last 30 years of his life and $3B of his hard-earned money invented it. Instead of only for bladder cancer.
Hope FDA approves it for all cancer indications soon.”

“Watch a killer T cell of the immune system destroying a monstrous ovarian cancer cell.
