‘Holy grail’ nanoparticle injection that treats skin cancer developed by Yale

Doesn't seem that broadly useful... How much skin cancer is developed by Yale anyway?

Ok, I needed this laugh. Lol

I hope nobody at Harvard reads about this. They'd respond by developing their own strain of metastatic brain goiter.

The article says that the treatment seems to work for "basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma", but doesn't say anything about melanoma. Has anyone read the full paper, and does it say whether treating melanomas might also be effective?

There's a similar product (injectable or topical) for melanoma https://www.biospace.com/article/releases/qbiotics-announces...

From my understanding they have products in the veterinary space already on market, and are in stage 2 human trials.

FTA:

> The injections consist of polymer-based nanoparticles infused with a chemotherapy agent.

Does it mean than it's not more efficient than chemotherapy on basic principles ? That it's just targeted much better ?
