Major Breakthrough: Russia Creates Cancer Vaccine, to Be Offered for Free Starting in 2025


Russia has created an mRNA vaccine for cancer, which will be given for free to cancer patients. The vaccine was developed with help from different research centers and is expected to be available to the public by early 2025.

Preliminary tests of the vaccine showed that it can stop tumors from growing and prevent them from spreading, according to Alexander Gintsburg, Director of the Gamaleya National Research Center. {alertSuccess}

An mRNA vaccine works by using parts of a virus, like its protein, to teach our cells how to make a similar protein. This triggers an immune response in the body. AI may help speed up the creation of personalized cancer vaccines. Gintsburg mentioned that using AI can reduce the time needed to design a customized vaccine to about 30 minutes to one hour.
