Highlights
  • The analysis of MD Anderson patient records suggests vaccines may boost survival when given with immunotherapy in lung cancer and melanoma, based on 1,000+ cases across the study.
  • Early vaccine timing, within about 100 days of starting treatment, linked to much longer median survival, highlighting timing as crucial for RNA-driven immune activation.
  • The findings hint at a universal, off-the-shelf cancer vaccine concept that could work with existing immunotherapies across melanoma and NSCLC.
