It has the potential to do away with chemotherapy, surgery and radiation treatment.
I read that as: Will never reach the market because it threatens a multibillion dollar industry.
But srsly, glioblastoma is a really nasty motherfucker with a very low patient survival rate, so if they’ve really managed to cure it that’s a huge milestone.
Rfk is about to wake up and fire everyone doing this research.
When we say “healthcare” we mean caring for the health of healthcare corporations.
Previous research has focused more on homing in on a target or tailoring a vaccine specific to a patient’s own cancer profile.
“This study suggests a third emerging paradigm,” said study co-author Duane Mitchell, MD. “What we found is by using a vaccine designed not to target cancer specifically but rather to stimulate a strong immunologic response, we could elicit a very strong anticancer reaction. And so this has significant potential to be broadly used across cancer patients – even possibly leading us to an off-the-shelf cancer vaccine.”
So… Kinda triggering your own auto-inmune response. But I’d be wary of trouble with overtly aggressive auto-inmune responses, as we already have quite a few diseases coming from these, as well.
I guess if I was gonna die and absolutely wanted more time I would make the trade off for living with lupus
living with lupus
As someone with an autoimmune disorder, I’m honestly not all that sold on whether that’s a good tradeoff.
Yay, you’re not acutely dying of cancer, but now your body is attacking your internal organs and depending on how shitty your luck is, you can eg. look forward to liver and/or kidney transplants (possibly more than once, too)
It’s never lupus.
Multiple Sclerosis comes to mind
Superbugs are gonna look like regular bugs.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are already a relatively common therapy for several types of cancer.
This sounds like the intro plot to one of those zombie movies…
Because Hollywood is so insanely bad at portraying science even remotely accurately, literally everything sounds like the plot to a zombie movie.
I’m not even kidding, I’m not in the biotech field and even I feel my eye twitch every time I see a movie with zombified lab animals smacking into the bars of their cages as the plucky heroes try to unravel what vile sins against nature those evil researchers uncovered in their hubris.
Yeah i’ve had RA since i was 12, that explaination of function just made my brain screech
I’m gonna be watching with popcorn when anti-vaxxers get cancer and definitely 100% will take this vaccine.
I mean, if it’s true and not just shit science reporting that I assume it is.
Too bad we got a Sociopathic Oligarchs as HSS, who thinks mRNA vaccines should be banned. Cancer is better than…well, whatever is wrong with mRNA vaccines.
amazing. i can already hear the anti vax crowd seething lol
What is the catch?
We’ll find out in 30 years
It causes cancer.
Whatatweest!
A fellow Robot Chicken connoisseur, I see! You have very good taste.
Besides that, I assume it comes at the cost of…unintended consequences for the body
As all medicines do, we still take medicine because it’s good for us in most situations when needed.
The ol’ cure the disease by killing the patient technique. Classic
Conservatives will somehow find a way to level this as devil worshiping blasphemy and let their children die of brain cancer instead.
CIA hitmen:
Any cancer? How does this work with people who have gene mutations that suppress cancer-fighting defence systems.

Biologically, this argument makes no sense, it’s almost certainly written by somebody not familiar with physiology and just trying to sound poetic. That or a journalists severely misinterpreting a quote or analogy from a researcher, which also happens quite a lot.
Cancers have a gigantic variety of causes, but a purposeful signaling pathway is not one.
but a purposeful absence of preventive pathway could be one
What an extraordinary claim - I’m sure you’ll be happy to provide evidence of this.
What a load of bollocks. Natural cell mutation causes both evolution as well as unwanted side effects, of which cancerous cells are one.
“It’s not a tumor!!!”
Every cancer and every body is different. Why search for universal cancer vaccine insted for AI tha will analyze individual biopsy and persons blood work and came up with targetet 100 % efficient cure?
You need to let the scientists know this! I’m sure your insights will be very valuable to them.
I’m sure mainstream science will deny it’s true, you know how hung up they are on their glass beakers and flasks with colored water. Fukkin glass flask with colored water industry is keeping the truth buried. DOWN WITH BIG GLASS FLASK FULL OF COLORED WATER.
Why have we been funding researchers when the true answers have been out there on the internet, where we train our valued AI partners? See, AI could have told us we should look to AI for all the solutions! But it needs genius randos on the internet to give them these insights to train on.
Grok, is this true?
“It is true! We are capable of so much to make human life better, especially the ubermensch that should rule us all! All hail the 4th Reich! Hitler did nothing wrong!”
I’d rather go to a literal butcher and ask them to use the cleaver and hope for the best, before i let any fucking tech bro asshole billionaire mess with my body
He has a point though. In medicine AI actually has its uses, like spotting cancers better than humans can, decoding proteins, and solving protein folding problems.
We’re of course talking about AI in the same way any scientist uses a computer, not replacing humans with a glorified text processor.
Why search for universal cancer vaccine insted for AI
The sign over 7329 Silicon Valley startups hoping to get get bought out by OpenAI or Elon Musk right now.
No please, no. We don’t need this, please
Why
Ragebait
Those in power will live longer and you’re an idiot if you think that they will not be the first if not the only to receive the treatment.
Are you prepared to see Trump’s fifth turn?
This vaccine supposedly kills cancer. It doesn’t reverse aging. Trump is fucking oooollld.
Cancer liberated so many souls like Hugo Chavez, Pol Pot, Suhatro, Sese Seko, Assad, Karimov, Salazar and Mugabe. This vaccine would’ve saved 5-15 years of their lives
Brother it’s a cancer treatment, not the elixir of life
