    You could say that they are working on a vaccine that updates the immune system to destroy cancer cells.

    Cancer cells are not "foreign invaders" to our body like viruses. It's a mutated cell of our own body that fails to degenerate. Naturally we do have cancer fighting antibodies in our system that kill small groups of mutated cells, but if there are too many of them or they are dividing too fast they become what we know as cancer and our immune system doesn't kick into overdrive to create more antibodies as the cells are apart of our own body, so you could say the immune system fails to recognise it as a deadly disease.

    HER-vaxx lets the immune system know that something else is in the body that shouldn't be so it creates an immune response which releases more cancer fighting antibodies that seek and attack the cancer cells.

    It's different to previous immunotherapy vaccines as the others have created the cancer fighting antibodies in a lab and just inject them into the patients.

    Where Imugene is different they inject a B-cell peptide which triggers our own immune system to create its own antibodies. The benefits Imugene's approach is massive, we just need to prove it works.
