RE: Hope on the horizon: Recent advances in brain cancer immunotherapy

in Popular STEM4 months ago

I was very sorry to read the story about your mother's illness. At 61, a person is still too young to die.

I read quite a few articles about the search for a cure for cancer. Some described why it is so difficult to treat this terrible disease. Unfortunately, there are many obstacles in the way of success. Every year there are headlines like the ones you link to, but no real breakthrough yet. However, the treatment with the help of mRNA vaccines, which you have written about here, I find very promising indeed.

True. They are making headway against some cancers, but others don't seem to improve at all. It seems to me like brain cancer is among the least treatable. But yes, maybe we can hope that the mRNA vaccines and other immunotherapies will turn that around.
