A first-of-its-kind clinical trial for a lung cancer MRNA vaccine, BNT116, has begun with 20 patients in the UK. This innovative vaccine, designed to combat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), aims to strengthen patients' immune systems, potentially saving millions of lives if successful. The trial is conducted by University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust's consultant medical oncologist, Dr. Charles Swanton. This cutting-edge therapy represents the future of cancer care, halting the return of the disease even after standard treatments like chemo and radiation. The ultimate goal is reducing cancer-related fatalities on a global scale. Source: The Guardian.
