Peptide vaccine targets H3K27M mutation in midline gliomas, shows promise in early trials
Tumor vaccines can help the body fight cancer. These vaccines alert the patient’s immune system to proteins that are carrying cancer-typical alterations. Physicians and cancer researchers from Heidelberg and Mannheim have now treated adult patients with advanced midline gliomas, difficult-to-treat brain tumors, with a peptide vaccine for the first time. The vaccine mimicked a mutational […]
