In a new study, clinician-scientists and researchers from the National Cancer Centre Singapore (NCCS) have demonstrated the use of exosomes to successfully target squamous cell cancer tumours that are usually resistant to epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). Their research is the first where exosomes have been applied to target TKI-resistant cancers in Singapore. The findings were published in the journal Developmental Cell last month.
