Marco Donia: Therapeutic Cancer Vaccines – update in Melanoma
Marco Donia,
at the“Therapeutic Cancer Vaccines: update in Melanoma, March 2024 (slides available, link at the bottom of the post). I was recently invited to the Finnish Melanoma Group 2024 Spring Meeting to provide an update on a field again on the rise: Melanoma Cancer Vaccines.
A quick summary of key topics and key references is provided below:
- Components of a cancer vaccine: Tumor antigens, formulations, immune adjuvants, delivery vehicles.
- Antigens targeted: cancer cell antigens or or antigens of the tumor microenvironment.
Recent results in Metastatic Melanoma:
- IDO/PD-L1 vaccine and phase 3 completed enrolment.
- FixVac, phase 2 ongoing.
- NEO-PV-01.
- EVX-01, phase 2 ongoing.
- Recent Results in high-risk Resected Melanoma: mRNA-4157, phase 3 ongoing.
Want to download and use my slides? You can do via this link (email required).
If you know other vaccines for melanoma in development, please comment and I will update the post! Thanks to the Finnish Melanoma Group and its (now, past) chair, Micaela Hernberg from HUS Helsinki University Hospital, for the invite and the great scientific exchange.”
