Researchers in New York are doing work on developing cancer vaccines.
Vaccines are the next frontier when it comes to fighting cancer. Doctors are testing therapeutic vaccines to teach the immune system to fight cancer.Doctors diagnosed 53-year-old William Morrison with a type of blood cancer known as Follicular Lymphoma.
"Most of these cancer vaccines we are talking about are not to prevent cancer but to treat someone who already has cancer," Dr. Brody said. "So instead of a preventative vaccine we call it a therapeutic vaccine for someone who already has the problem." His team recently presented promising findings from their clinical trials using cancer vaccines to a prestigious medical conference in Boston.
That is something that has been a childhood dream of Dr. Brody, who decided to follow his father into medicine.
