Scientists Say They ’ve Reached Turning Point in Cancer Research With Vaccines
SEATTLE — The next big advance in cancer treatment could be a vaccine. After decades of limited success, scientists say research has reached a turning point, with many predicting more vaccines will be out in five years. These aren’t traditional vaccines that prevent disease, but shots to shrink tumors and stop cancer from coming back. Targets for these experimental treatments include breast and lung cancer, with gains reported this year for deadly skin cancer melanoma and pancreatic cancer.

Why the Diabetes Drug Mounjaro Works So Well for Weight Loss
This study shows that for insulin secretion, which is a major biological action for glucose control, it looks like GIP is very, very important,” he says. Taking that scientific hint, Campbell hopes to build on these findings by studying GLP-1 and GIP in a larger number of human cell samples. And because the volunteers in the current trial represented a range of BMIs but did not have diabetes, he says it’s important to also include cells from people with that condition to better isolate the most efficient way to control blood sugar and weight.
