Bispecific Antibodies
Bispecifics are a type of immunotherapy, a treatment designed to help your body's own immune system find and address cancer cells. These medicines have a unique structure, like having two "arms." One arm connects to a specific marker on a cancer cell, while the other connects to your T cells, which are important immune cells. By linking the cancer cell directly to a T cell, bispecifics help your immune system identify and target the cancer more effectively. Understanding how bispecifics work can help you discuss this treatment option with your healthcare team.
