Today, the whole world is troubled by a serious disease like cancer. Many people die due to expensive treatment of cancer and lack of vaccine. Meanwhile, Russia has made a big announcement to solve this disease, Russia said that it has made a cancer vaccine, which will be available to all citizens for free.
Andrei Kaprin, director of the Radiology Medical Research Center of the Russian Health Ministry, said that this Russian cancer vaccine will be made differently for different types of patients.
Due to this specialty, its cost will be around 2.5 lakh rupees. Russian citizens will get this vaccine for free. However, Kaprin has not given any information about when the rest of the world will get this vaccine.
Cancer vaccine will be launched in 2025
The Russian Health Ministry has announced that it has developed a vaccine against cancer that will be administered free of cost to cancer patients in Russia from the beginning of 2025.
According to Russian state-owned news agency TASS, Andrey Kaprin, general director of the Radiology Medical Research Center of the Russian Ministry of Health, gave information about this vaccine on a Russian radio channel.
At the same time, director Andrei Kaprin said that the vaccine has proven effective in preclinical trials. It has slowed down the growth of tumors and reduced it by up to 80%. This vaccine is designed through a special program based on the data of the tumor cells of the patients.
The vaccine will be effective in 48 hours
Veronika Svortskova, head of Russia's Federal Medical Biological Agency, has explained the working method of the vaccine with the help of melanoma (skin cancer). First, a sample of cancer cells is taken from the cancer patient.
After this, scientists sequence the genes of this tumor. Through this, the protein made in cancer cells is identified. After identifying the protein, a personalized mRNA vaccine is made. The cancer vaccine given to R orders the body to make T cells.
These T cells attack the tumor and eliminate cancer. After this, the human body starts recognizing the tumor cells, so that cancer does not return again.
According to Elias Sayur, a cancer expert from the US state of Florida, the vaccine made using this technology showed results in less than 48 hours for brain cancer.
Russia will announce another vaccine
According to the website of the National Medical Research Radiological Center of the Russian Ministry of Health, two types of research were being conducted to fight cancer. The first of these is mRNA vaccine and the second is oncolytic virotherapy.
Under this therapy, cancer cells are targeted and infected with human viruses modified in the lab. This causes the virus to multiply itself in the cancer cells. The result is that the cancer cells are destroyed. That is, in this therapy, instead of directly destroying the tumor, cancer cells are destroyed by activating immunity.
The name of the vaccine being made for this therapy is Enteromics. The research cycle of this vaccine has been completed. It may be announced soon.
