【Cancer vaccine is really here! It is not to prevent cancer, but to "train" immune cells to hunt down tumors! 】
Cancer cells are making a comeback? One shot of vaccine allows the body to learn to "defend itself"! Tumor vaccine - equip the immune system with a "cancer cell identifier" to prevent recurrence and metastasis!
1️What is the principle?
▪️ Cancer cells will disguise: like wearing a mask to hide from immune cells
▪️ Vaccine function: tell the characteristics (antigens) of cancer cells to the immune system, so that immune cells can learn to "tear off the mask and hunt down"
2️Treatment is divided into three steps
▪️ Extract characteristics: take tumor tissue or blood, find unique antigens for cancer cells
▪️ Make vaccines: laboratory synthesized antigens + enhancers (like "issuing a wanted order" to the immune system)
▪️ Vaccine injection: arm injection, activate the whole body immune patrol
3️⃣ Who needs to be vaccinated?
✅ Prevent recurrence after surgery (such as breast cancer, colorectal cancer)
✅ Advanced cancer combined with PD-1 inhibitors (enhanced effect)
✅ High-risk population with family history of cancer (clinical trial stage)
✔️ Comparison with chemotherapy/radiotherapy
▪️ Side effects: only slight fever vs hair loss and vomiting
▪️ Accuracy: only kill cancer cells vs kill both good and bad cells
▪️ Effective period: may last for several years vs short-term effectiveness
