Merseyside hospitals are leading cutting-edge research into developing personalised cancer vaccines.
Health Correspondent, BBC North West
Mr Taylor, from Wirral, is talking to me at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre, where he's now involved in what many hope will come to be seen as the start of revolution in cancer treatment. Two hospitals in Liverpool are helping lead the way in this new field of medicine, and the initial results are promising.
It's fair to say that without the pandemic, this trial would probably not exist - the huge concentration of money and effort to find a Covid vaccine also massively accelerated progress in this cutting-edge field. Clatterbridge - working in partnership with the Royal Liverpool Hospital next door, along with the University of Liverpool - is running a number of world-first clinical trials on cancer vaccines.At the Royal Liverpool, scientists are preparing to start another trial, using mRNA vaccines following bowel cancer surgery.
But in the here and now nearly every NHS trust is battling to reduce the backlogs in cancer care caused by the same pandemic that helped accelerate the research programme.
