"Off the Chart" breakthroughs have been announced for cancer treatments at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting, the world's largest cancer conference held this week.  

Melanoma cancer deaths and cancer return rates reduced by half  with a new vaccine.

Hodgkin Lymphoma cured more effectively with new treatment mix, drugs melting bowel tumors , stopping lung cancer advancing and stalling breast cancer spread.

Other new vaccines in promising clinical trials. 

These are absolutely HUGE findings!!!! 

(Side note. There have been many predictions on cancer treatments made within the last year or so during RTF nights and while I am not sure how they are lining up at the moment with this news, it all brings great hope. It feels incredibly really positive.)

I was looking through the Forum on where to post this. Found Lovendures thread here from 2 years ago. The melanoma vaccine she mentioned has made great progress! This is spectacular and exciting news for melanoma and other cancer treatments that will benefit. I think we will be seeing more and more of these types of amazing advances in the next few years, bringing hope to many!
