Personalised Cancer Vaccination Strategies: Bridging Genomics, Bioinformatics, and Immunotherapy
Abstract: Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment by harnessing the body’s immune system to detect and destroy cancer cells. Personalised cancer vaccines are one of the most promising options because they could allow treatment to be based on the specific tumour profile of each person. The goal of these vaccines is to make the immune system recognise and fight cancer-specific antigens, which will lead to strong and long-lasting anti-tumor responses. However, moving …
