First Human Receives mRNA Based Cancer Treatment
- supperburg 5y agoI’m having trouble reading the text. Did it work?
- Tagbert 5y agoThis is just an announcement saying that they have given the treatment to the 1st of a planned 200 patients in a trial. They will use that trial to determine the efficacy but they don’t have any results yet. There is no indication in the article for when they expect to see results.

- hentrep 5y agoCan we get a correction on this headline, or consider using the primary source [0]? The current title is inaccurate - clinicaltrials.gov reports 5 active studies with BioNTech‘a mRNA vaccine, BNT122 [1]. First-in-human solid tumor data was reported by Braiteh et al at AACR last year [2]. The headline should read: “First patient dosed in Phase II trial of mRNA-based vaccine for colorectal cancer.” [0] https://investors.biontech.de/news-releases/news-release-details/biontech-expands-clinical-oncology-portfolio-first-patient-dosed/ https://investors.biontech.de/news-releases/news-release-det...
