Apparently, the next big advance in cancer treatment could be a vaccine. There has been limited success in the field that has seen research take place over decades. Scientists though are saying we’ve reached a turning point and more vaccines could be out in the next five years.
Dr. Nora Disis of UW Medicine’s Cancer Vaccine Institute says that relying on T-Cells could be the key to hunting down cancer danger in the body. The learning process from prior failures on cancer vaccines appears to have paid dividends with some vaccines advancing towards testing and human trials. The vaccines under development at UW Med would work for many patients and not just a single patient. Tests are underway for early and advanced breast cancer, lung cancer, and ovarian cancer. Some results may come as soon as next year.

The next big advance in cancer treatment could be a vaccineThe next big advance in cancer treatment could be a vaccine that can shrink tumors and stop cancer from coming back. Among the targets for the experimental shots: melanoma, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer. The research has reached a turning point, scientists say, with many predicting new cancer vaccine approvals within five years. These are vaccines to treat existing disease but preventing cancer before it starts is another line of vaccine research. Patient volunteers say they are taking part in hopes of shrinking their tumors, but also to help future cancer patients.
