New vaccine aims to stop inherited cancer before it starts

NCT ID NCT05078866

Summary

This trial is testing a vaccine called Nous-209 in people with Lynch syndrome, a genetic condition that greatly increases the risk of colorectal and other cancers. The vaccine is designed to teach the body's immune system to recognize and attack early cancer cells. Researchers want to see if the vaccine is safe and if it can trigger an immune response that might prevent tumors from forming.
