Huh, Heh, Wow

  • The Guardian reports that the world's first mRNA lung cancer vaccine, BNT116 from BioNTech, has entered clinical trials across seven countries. Designed to treat non-small cell lung cancer, the vaccine primes the immune system to recognise tumour markers and attack cancer cells. Around 130 patients, ranging from early-stage cases prior to surgery or radiotherapy to those with advanced or recurrent cancer, will receive the vaccine in combination with immunotherapy. Patients receive six RNA-based injections - each containing different RNA strands - over 30 minutes, followed by weekly vaccinations for six weeks, and will then continue with doses every three weeks for a total of 54 weeks.
