I hope everyone's watching #CancerDetectives on Channel 4!
My team has sweated over various aspects of this. It's a big passion project, my colleague's second baby, and hopefully will help more people understand what it means to do #CancerResearch today, and indeed what it means to have cancer now, compared to some decades ago.

A Phase 1 clinical trial on personalized #CancerVaccines for renal carcinoma reports promising results.
After 40 months, none of the 9 patients showed detectable recurrence. The approach involves sequencing tumor samples post-surgery to develop patient-specific vaccines, training the immune system to recognize and eliminate cancer cells.
Further studies are required, but these findings suggest potential clinical applications.

Comment: revolutionary
* trials: skin, brain, lung tumors
* possible w/i 6 wk due to mRNA vaccines
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRNA_vaccine
* uses fragment (cloned copy) of messenger RNA (mRNA)
* injected; stimulates adaptive immune response
* body identifies/destroys corresponding pathogen (SARS-Cov-2: COVID-19 ...) or cancer cells
