NeoVax(MI) vaccine developed by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute could be approved soon with promising results in boosting immune response in melanoma patients

The clinical trial of the personalized vaccine NeoVax(MI) has shown promising results in the treatment of melanoma, generating a strong immune response. The vaccine contains patient-specific neoantigens and is administered together with standard immunotherapies such as nivolumab and ipilimumab. Scientists observed an increase in immune cells after vaccination, indicating effective immune activation. This innovative approach could significantly improve treatments for skin cancer.
