Researchers at Deakin University , Melbourne are collaborating with Indian scientists to develop a new 'Smart Bomb' drug delivery system that is set to have fewer side-effects than chemotherapy and will target cancer cells in the body rather than attacking both cancer and non-cancer cells. The findings include cancer antibodies that are designed to bind specifically to cancer cells, which, together with a gene splicing technique called ' RNA interference' , will develop a treatment which penetrates and destroys mutated cells that cause the spread of cancer.
