Talk:Monoclonal antibody therapy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Rewrite
The information on this page was very, very good, almost too good. The main problems that I found and fixed were:
- Too much detail- not enough background.
- Talked only about cancer drugs, neglected all of the other Mabs.
- Way too many references (107), it is almost as if someone copied a journal article into here. Much of the same background information can be found in textbooks (one source).
- Poor layout and "wiki-syntax" throughout, also a bit "wordy".
I have removed some extraneous detail that does not belong in this article, created a summary table and included all the Mabs I could find, moved a lot of the specific cancer Mab info to cancer immunotherapy. I have also fixed the wiki-syntax and presented a more reasonable flow of information. Cheers--DO11.10 23:51, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] From article: Monoclonal antibody therapy of cancer
with regards to an article in the times (march 19th 2006) what was the monoclonal antibody tested? any information about this trial wopuld be appreciated
That trial was on the monoclonal antibody "TGN 1412" (anti-CD28), there is an article on wikipedia about it.
[edit] Page recreated!!??
This article was recreated from material in the article Monoclonal antibody therapy, which had some serious problems, and that I have already cleaned up. The information in this article is already repeated in both articles Monoclonal antibody therapy and Cancer immunotherapy, and this page will be redirected to "Monoclonal antibody therapy" unless you can come up with a very compelling reason why it should not.--DO11.10 06:29, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Having heard nothing, I am now redirecting this page (Monoclonal antibody therapy of cancer) to "Monoclonal antibody therapy" as all information is redundant..--DO11.10 00:17, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
