Unlike vaccines designed to prevent cancer, this vaccine is intended to cure patients who already have cancer. This is great news to patients who are undergoing chemotherapy and radiation with terrible side effects.
The vaccine will be personalized to the patient’s cancer type. Colon, breast, and lung cancers are among the most common types in Russia.
The vaccine was developed in collaboration with several research centers and is expected to be launched for general circulation in early 2025, according to TASS.
Pre-clinical trials of the vaccine demonstrated its ability to suppress tumor growth and prevent metastases (spread) to other organs in the body.
Other countries are also working on personalized cancer vaccines. In May, researchers at the University of Florida tested an individualized vaccine on four patients with glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer.
In the UK, scientists are testing a personalized vaccine for melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer. Early results have shown that the vaccine significantly improves survival rates.
