Astrazeneca & Prostate Cancer

 

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/27/2021 -- Astrazeneca is a name that has become synonymous with the COVID-19 vaccine roll out over the past year but that's not the only way the British pharma company is contributing to progress. A new collaboration has been announced between Astrazeneca and the Cambridge-based biotech business Alchemab, which it is hoped will accelerate the research around prostate cancer. Part of the project will be focusing on a proof-of-concept study that is designed to help researchers get a deeper understanding of prostate cancer. Antibody repertoires gathered from an AZ clinical study will be sequenced and explored by Alchemab and there may be an opportunity to identify biomarkers for early detection of prostate cancer. The hope is to highlight novel antibodies that can be used to generate therapeutic insights and create more opportunities to understand the 'currently unknown' disease biology of prostate cancer. The collaboration will also provide a showcase for Alchemab technology, not just in terms of drug discovery but diagnostics too.
