Vaccinatie tegen Kan ker: Immuno-Logisch
The immune system not only protects us from infections with pathogens, but it can also help us fight cancer . Through vaccinations, the immune system can be trained to recognize and clear cancer cells. Although cancer vaccines are not yet used in the clinic, several types of vaccines are currently in development. This says Professor of Translational Immunology Joke de Haan in her i naugural lecture.
We think we can make these vaccines more effe ctive by incorporating molecules that ensure that the vaccine is bett er absorbed by the immune system. This could eventually improve the e ffectiveness of patient-specific and off-the-shelf cancer vaccines.
