New 'Trojan Horse' Antibody Strategy Shows Promise Against All Ebola Viruses

In our new paper in Science, we describe a new therapeutic strategy to target a hidden Achilles’ heel shared by all known types of Ebola virus. This strategy relies on our development of unique bispecific antibodies that like the mythical "Trojan horse," trick Ebola into carrying the means of its own destruction into host cells. See the press release here and a perspective on our work published in Science here.
