Atezolizumab is not the experimental drug, it's an already approved drug. The drug in question is the unnamed drug it was combined with.


Huh. It was there earlier. I can't remember what it said, a something-mab, so monoclonal antibody. I wonder why the BBC did a wee ninja-edit? Legal reasons?


Yes.
