Antibody therapies are offering promising treatment breakthroughs for cancer and other illnesses, generating greater investor interest more than 20 years after they were first commercialised. Antibodies are proteins that recognise foreign substances, known as antigens, attaching themselves to them to alert the rest of the human immune system. In 1975, scientists Georges Koehler and Cesar Milstein discovered how to produce them in a laboratory, which later earned them a Nobel Prize for medicine. Dozens of synthetic antibodies have since been developed. New antibody treatments to be used with chemotherapy have arrived on the scene in recent years. Most recently, a clinical trial of an antibody developed by pharmaceutical groups Daiichi Sankyo and AstraZeneca caught the attention of leading cancer specialists gathered at the American Society of Clinical Oncology's annual congress in Chicago this month. The treatment, Enhertu, was already authorised for breast cancer patients … [Read more...] about New antibody therapies fight cancer, drum up investment

In 2017, Bach Mai, a leading public hospital in Hanoi and northern Vietnam, struck a deal with Ho Chi Minh City-based B.M.S Medical Equipment Co., Ltd to put into use two robots, Mako and Rosa, for assisting surgeries. The made-in-U.S. robots were used to help doctors conduct joint and craniocerebral operations. Three years later, both robots were seized as evidence to investigate a case in which their prices had been raised from around VND7.4 billion ($320,000) each to VND39 billion and VND44 billion. A court in January sentenced the hospital's former director, Nguyen Quoc Anh, to five years in jail for "abusing positions and powers while performing official duties." Speaking to VnExpress earlier this month, a top hospital official said the robots could not be used during the time the investigation remains active.
