  1. Karen Knudsen, CEO of the Parker Institute for #Cancer ⁠Immunotherapy, said the Moderna results could signal a new era for treating solid-tumor #cancers.

    “The positive hit here leads us into truly this next phase in #immunotherapy,” Knudsen said. “This is an auspicious start — this is where things begin.”

  2. A personalized #mRNA #cancer #vaccine combined with the #immunotherapy #Keytruda succeeded in a late-stage trial for the deadly skin cancer #melanoma, its makers said Wednesday, potentially opening up a new way of treating the #disease.

    The study is ongoing, but interim results found the treatment, #intismeran, met both its primary target of reducing cancer recurrence & its secondary ⁠goal of keeping cancers from spreading to other parts of the body.

  3. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🥜🧫 A first-of-its-kind #trial at #Boston #Children’s Hospital tested whether fecal microbiota transplant pills could help #adults with severe #peanut #allergies.

    Six of 15 participants meaningfully raised their peanut #protein tolerance, some up to 600 mg, with effects lasting at least four months. Researchers traced the benefit to specific Bacteroides #bacteria that appeared to calm immune responses, though larger placebo-controlled trials are still needed.

  5. 🧬 Scientists are using mRNA to make cancer cells produce an immune alarm protein called IL-12, and early results are striking.

    The idea: inject mRNA encoding IL-12 directly into tumors. The cancer cells produce the protein, which activates T cells and NK cells to attack. Systemic IL-12 was abandoned years ago due to severe toxicity. Local mRNA delivery sidesteps that problem.

    Multiple programs are in human trials. AstraZeneca's MEDI1191 showed partial responses in melanoma patients, including those resistant to existing immunotherapy. A Yale preclinical study found a single injection cured 60%+ of mice with melanoma.

    There's also a newer approach: molecular on/off switches built into the mRNA itself. Researchers at Mount Sinai (published Nov 2025) engineered mRNA that detects cancer-specific microRNAs and only activates inside tumor cells. In mice: 100-fold higher expression in tumors, 380-fold lower in healthy organs. But this is still preclinical.

    The catch: the on/off switch tech is mouse-only so far. The human trials rely on physically injecting into the tumor for selectivity, not molecular switches. Those are two different approaches at different stages, often blended together in popular coverage.

  11. An AI pipeline at Penn Medicine screened over 10,000 targets and found GPNMB, a protein that CAR T cells can attack across three cancer types — leukemia, melanoma, and colorectal cancer — in mouse tests. The system used large language models and ran 1,000 independent simulations to control for AI hallucinations. 🔬
