mRNA vaccines show promise against pancreatic cancer in early trial
Personalized mRNA vaccines show promise as a pancreatic cancer treatment, according to a small, early stage trial published Wednesday.Kaitlin Sullivan (NBC News)
Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest forms of the disease, with fewer than 13% of people living more than five years after diagnosis. Personalized mRNA vaccines could be a new option in improving outcomes. In a trial published in Nature, 16 patients with operable pancreatic cancer were given personalized mRNA vaccines after their tumors had been removed. These vaccines were designed to teach the patients' immune systems to attack their cancer cells. Half of the people in the study responded to the vaccine, producing T cells that targeted their tumors. While it was a small phase 1 trial and there are many unknown factors, experts consider the results to be encouraging. “If we can see this response stand up in bigger trials, that’s really significant,” Dr. Shubham Pant, a professor of gastrointestinal medical oncology, told NBC News.
