Abstract: Provided is a substance capable of effectively suppressing cancer metastasis or a pharmaceutical composition that effectively acts on an inflammatory disease. The pharmaceutical composition is a pharmaceutical composition containing, as an active ingredient, an antibody or an antibody fragment thereof having antigen-binding activity for an S100A8/A9 heterodimer, and blocks interaction between S100A8/A9 and a group of receptors therefor, to thereby strongly suppress cancer metastasis both in vitro and in vivo, or alleviate inflammation. That is, the anti-S100A8/A9 antibody or the antibody fragment thereof can strongly suppress cancer metastasis or alleviate inflammation, by virtue of its blocking action on the interaction between S100A8/A9 and the group of receptors therefor.

Abstract: A control device for a moving body is configured to execute following movement control under which a movement speed of a moving body is controlled to follow a preceding moving body moving ahead of the moving body, and constant speed movement control under which the movement speed of the moving body is controlled to be a predetermined target. The control device is configured to execute, when the preceding moving body is detected, the following movement control, and execute, when the preceding moving body is no longer detected during execution of the following movement control, the constant speed movement control under which the movement speed of the moving body is controlled such that the movement speed of the moving body becomes the target speed based on a movement speed of a surrounding moving body moving in a surrounding area of the moving body.
