Breakthrough: Israel Develops Cancer Vaccine
United With Isreal ^ | Rivka Borochov

Posted on 11/14/2011 8:26:48 PM PST by arbee4bush

Vaxil’s groundbreaking therapeutic vaccine, developed in Israel, could keep about 90 percent of cancers from coming back. As the world’s population lives longer than ever, if we don’t succumb to heart disease, strokes or accidents, it is more likely that cancer will get us one way or another. Cancer is tough to fight, as the body learns how to outsmart medical approaches that often kill normal cells while targeting the malignant ones.

In a breakthrough development, the Israeli company Vaxil BioTherapeutics has formulated a therapeutic cancer vaccine, now in clinical trials at Hadassah University Medical Center in Jerusalem. If all goes well, the vaccine could be available about six years down the road, to administer on a regular basis not only to help treat cancer but in order to keep the disease from recurring.

The vaccine is being tested against a type of blood cancer called multiple myeloma. If the substance works as hoped — and it looks like all arrows are pointing that way — its platform technology VaxHit could be applied to 90 percent of all known cancers, including prostate and breast cancer, solid and non-solid tumors.

A vaccine that works like a drug

A traditional vaccine helps the body’s immune system fend off foreign invaders such as bacteria or viruses, and is administered to people who have not yet had the ailment. Therapeutic vaccines, like the one Vaxil has developed, are given to sick people, and work more like a drug.

Pretty sure that's what killed my Dad at sixty-five.

It sounds a bit fanciful, but then I think of the things I've seen in my lifetime, and if it works out, I shouldn't be surprised at all.

Healthcare industry won't be too happy about this....Insurance companies will be extremely happy. Talk about two industries with a lot at stake butting heads.

So sorry about your loss.

My cousin died last year of that same cancer. She was 43.

I can see all the Arabs dying of cancer after refusing to take a Jewish drug.

I’m sorry for your loss. We can only hope that this is true and so many lives can be saved. It almost sounds too good to be for real.

make it kosher so that anyone taking the drug is taking it as blessed by a Rabi.

Haha...you can bet your last dime (if Obama doesn’t get it first) that he and the UN will force Israel to give up the secret recipe.

It will be wonderful if it holds true. I always wondered why it hadn’t happened yet, even suspected it might be ‘held back’ because of the enormous amount of business it might cancel out. - like curing the common cold would.

Twenty states had legislation to mandate the HPV vaccine in 2007. Perry was just the first to openly try to mandate it.

I will pray this Israeli vaccine holds true.

Exactly why this kind of development will never be discovered in America.

I hope this works out as they say it will. Although cancer is not always an automatic death sentence, it is a very tough road to take and I really pray this is the breakthrough we need. All of us have lost too many loved ones to cancer.

I’m curious to see if the moslems will buy doses of this Israeli vaccine to save the lives of their fellow moslems.

Usually, they’re busy killing their own daughters, so who knows.

USA/Israel spends time/energy figuring out how to save people. But moslems spend time/energy figuring out how to murder and slaughter people.
