OncoSec (CA, USA) has developed a therapeutic platform for the reversible electroporation of plasmid DNA that uses patients’ own tumors to produce a potent, yet safe immunotherapy, whereby sustained intracellular release of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-12 transforms immunosuppressed tumors into immunologically active lesions through coordinated innate and adaptive immunity.
