Revolutionary Cancer Vaccine Targets Any Solid Tumors

Melanoma patients could soon benefit from a new treatment. A groundbreaking study promises new approaches in cancer research.

Revolutionary Cancer Vaccine Targets Any Solid Tumors

The method triggers immune responses that inhibit melanoma, triple-negative breast cancer, lung carcinoma, and ovarian cancer. Cancer treatment vaccines have been in development since 2010, when the first was approved for prostate cancer, followed by another in 2015 for melanoma. While many therapeutic (rather than preventive) cancer vaccines have been researched since then, none have [...]

Tamworth melanoma survivors and supporters march for cure

It’s one of Australia’s most prevalent and deadly cancers, but there still isn’t a cure for melanoma. A determined group in Tamworth want that to change, raising awareness and money as part of a national initiative.

Revolutionary Cancer Vaccine Paves Way for Potent Immune Defense Against Tumors

A groundbreaking cancer vaccine from Tufts University enhances the immune system’s ability to target and annihilate cancer cells. The vaccine employs a lysate of protein fragments from solid tumors, allowing it to target various cancers, including melanoma and breast cancer. Innovative use of a ubiquitin tag in the vaccine aids in displaying tumor proteins to the immune system, prompting a robust response. Animal models show effective resistance…
