cancer vaccines self-sabotage, page-2

Hi fox21

"The result: largely unscathed tumors while an overstimulated immune response can cause lesions at the injection site. The team found that a major culprit in this failure is incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA), a mineral oil-based adjuvant included in many vaccines to stoke the immune response."


The vaccines in this study were based on an adjuvant called IFA.

Cvac uses Mannan as it's adjuvant:

"We also use a proprietary immune adjuvant called mannan (oxidised mannose). Mannan assists in activating the immune system and ensures preferential expression of the production of killer T cells that will target mucin-1."

It was an interesting read, but the issue does not apply in the case of Cvac, as proven by the safety data that has been gathered to date.
