cancervaccines#, but how do they actually work?
These vaccines help train your bodyโs immune system to recognize the unique genetic signature of cancer cells. Once activated, the immune system can:

๐น Work alongside other cancer treatments
๐น Create a lasting immune response that may help prevent cancer from returning or spreading
