On the Horizon- Another Potential Prostate Cancer Vaccine

[Guest guest]

Vaccine therapy is one of the new frontiers in cancer research and

hopefully, in the very near future, in prostate cancer treatment…… Now, a

potential new vaccine (Prostvac-VF ) that is based on a relative of the

smallpox virus seems to also offer a life extending ability to men with

advanced prostate cancer……. Preliminary tests conducted on 125 men with

advanced prostate cancer that was hormone refractory showed they lived more

than 8 months longer than men not treated with the vaccine.
