Personalised mRNA-based cancer vaccine mRNA-4157/V940, in combination with the immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab (Keytruda) improved recurrence-free survival (RFS) compared with pembrolizumab alone in patients with high-risk melanoma. According to the results of the primary trial analysis, after 18 months, the RFS was 78.6%

Gene therapy, which was in its infancy around 30 years ago, is now becoming a more prominent treatment method in many therapeutic areas, from personalized therapy to mass vaccinations against COVID-19. Additionally, gene editing allows us either to remove or to modify harmful genes. Gene Expression Considerations.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) has come into focus within the drug discovery and development as an exciting tool to deliver genetic information. mRNA is a molecule made up of a single strand of ribonucleic acid (RNA). At the start of 2024, the first patients in a clinical trial investigating an mRNA cancer therapy were dosed.

From isolating SARS-CoV-2 in early January to sequencing its genome shortly thereafter and having a prototype vaccine against it within days, scientific process and progress have held steadfast throughout the pandemic. For example, investment in mRNA vaccines and viral vectors came well before January, many years before it.
