Scientists have made a discovery that could help bring about new treatments for advanced breast cancer.
A new study has uncovered a group of immune cells, called immune B cells, that hunt down cancer in the body, making them successful at targeting the disease when it spreads through the body, including tumours.
Findings, published in Nature Immunology, show that when a receptor on the B cell identifies a cancer cell and binds to it, the B cell changes to be even more effective at targeting those cancer cells. Researchers have developed a tool aimed at spotting these anti-cancer cells, which they say could lead to better, personalised immunotherapies for patients.
Immunotherapy uses someone’s own immune system to fight cancer, and works by helping it recognise and attack cancer cells.

Dr Stephen-John Sammut, first author on the study and leader of the Cancer Dynamics Group at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, (ICR) said: “Once cancer spreads to other parts of the body, it’s often much more difficult to treat.
“Our research has revealed that the immune response to cancer isn’t limited to the site where a tumour initially appears – if an immune B cell is successful at detecting cancer in one part of the body, it will search for similar cancer cells elsewhere in the body.”
The consultant medical oncologist at The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, added: “Currently there are very few immunotherapies that can be used to treat
