Brigham and Women’s Hospital researchers have created a cancer vaccine to simultaneously kill and prevent the deadly brain cancer glioblastoma.
Can the cure for deadly cancers be in the cancer itself?
“I’m a big believer that the cure for these tough cancers might be in the cancer itself, that we can use cancer against cancer,” the Brigham’s Khalid Shah told the Boston Herald on Wednesday. Cancer vaccines are an active area of research for many labs, but the approach that Shah and his colleagues have taken is new. Instead of using inactivated tumor cells, the team repurposed living tumor cells, which possess an unusual feature — living tumor cells will travel long distances across the brain to return to the site of their fellow tumor cells.
