Thumbs up the future of Herceptin with nanotechnology

These experiments in the below study, have shown that Nanoparticles covalently coupled with antibodies, like herceptin bind to cancer cells in both a pretargeting and a direct approach. In theroy, nanoparticles coupled with Herceptin may be a useful drug carrier for tumor targeting. These nanoparticles could either hold radioactive substances to help diagnose metastatic cancer or chemotherapeutic agents to target and kill her2 metastatic cells.
