First patient in UK gets 'vaccine' for cancer to help immune system ward off cancer permanently

[packman]

A Merseyside man has become the first in the UK to receive a ‘vaccine’ that is hoped will stop his recurring head and neck cancer from returning, in a clinical research trial which may help bring further ground-breaking treatments for the disease.

The clinical research team at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre has given patient Graham Booth an injection of a therapy tailor-made to his personal DNA and designed to help his own immune system ward off cancer permanently.

1. A cure for HIV, pig-grown organs for human transplants, and now a cancer vaccine?

Amazing.

Make sure they work and make sure all of these things are available to ALL people regardless of nation or income. Anything less than that is unacceptable.

4. If this cancer "vaccine" works...

... it will be made available to Brits on the National Health Service. I think this socialist medicine they've been practicing there for the past 70+ years has been working quite well actually. Can't speak to other countries but I'm sure it will be made available to lower income countries at cost.

11. Contrast that system to that in the US.

Taxpayers fund a lot of medical research, such as that done by the National Institutes of Health, and then turn the breakthrough findings over to a pharmaceutical company that charges outrageous amounts for the treatment. If we taxpayers are funding the research, of which I heartily approve, why does Big Pharma get the benefits?

13. Probably because of the Politicians they have bought off.

2. Wow....

3. Awesome. I hope for his sake and for

the sake of humanity that it works. Could be a tremendous breakthrough in cancer treatment.

5. I Wonder What Robert Kennedy Jr. Has To Say About This Vaccine?....nt

8. Who? What? Haven't heard from him.

Must not be important

10. He's The Anti-Vaxxer That Just Held A March In D.C. Against The Covid Vaccine....

Son of Robert Kennedy Sr. who was assassinated and an embarrassment to the Kennedy name and family.

18. Who??? Just can't imagine that person

6. Over thirty years ago I was treated for breast cancer.

I had surgeries, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, along with 5+ years of tamoxifen, an oral medication that was believed would help prevent a recurrence. So far, I have remained cancer free and am so very grateful.

Early in my treatment (that took place over several years, plus the follow up) there was discussion of having a custom made treatment for each patient. It would be tailor made for their genetic makeup and their specific type of cancer. It was like science fiction. It appears we are on the cusp of such a treatment, a vaccine that will greatly increase the chances the cancer will be killed off and never return!

As a survivor of cancer, I can only say it is a privilege to live to see the day arrive when maybe cancer won’t be the scourge and trauma it is. Improvements in treatments have been made but this vaccine will be a game changer. It just makes my heart glad to see such hope closer now than ever.

7. This is wonderfully exciting!

I am hoping for success, of course. This could be a game changer for so many people.

9. Hope it works . . . although it surely must be just another liberal, commie plot to

"take our freedoms away." Seriously, coming from a family that expects to die from colon cancer, this is really encouraging.

12. How long before repugs & FQX calls it a hoax?

And encourages everyone not to take the vaccine for it on account of the tracking device?
Makes a lot of sense to use our own immune system to fight it.

14. It's a miracle! Innovation under socialized medicine is practically impossible!

Or so I am told.

[Caliman73]

15. Right?

How the hell could they have pulled it off?

There was no competition, no financial incentive, I mean no chance at billions and billions in profit.

17. I hope it's totally effective, successful and free of side effects!....

or very very minor side effects that will go away!
