First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of treating cancer comprising:
- positioning, in or on a user, a physical area network comprising;
a first set of nano-nodes, wherein a surface of each nano-node in the first set of nano-nodes is encapsulated with one or more plasma membrane-associated components, and wherein the one or more plasma membrane-associated components are derived from a cancer cell;
a second set of nano-nodes;
at least one nano-router; and
at least one nano-micro interface, wherein each nano-node in the second set of nano-nodes includes a communication device to communicate with a nano-node of the second set of nano-nodes, the at least one nano-router and/or the at least one nano-micro interface; and
activating an immune response against the cancer cell in the user, thereby treating the cancer.
