In a breakthrough that reads like a beacon of hope, Russia has announced that its novel cancer vaccine, Enteromix, has demonstrated 100% efficacy and safety in initial human trials. The news highlights the vaccine's remarkable performance: patients experienced tumour shrinkage and no serious side effects. Developed using the same mRNA technology as the COVID-19 vaccines, Enteromix is designed to train the immune system to recognize and eliminate cancer cells, a safer, more intelligent alternative to traditional treatments like chemotherapy.
This pioneering therapy is personalized for each colorectal cancer patient, offering a custom immunotherapy tailored to an individual's tumour profile. The trials involved 48 volunteers and were conducted by Russia's National Medical Research Radiological Centre in collaboration with the Engelhardt Institute of Molecular Biology. The announcement, made at the 2025 St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, frames this Russian cancer vaccine as a potential game-changer in oncology, one step away from regulatory approval by Russia's Ministry of Health.
Global oncology is watching attentively. If these results are validated through larger, rigorous trials, Enteromix could herald a new era: personalized, effective, and side-effect-light cancer treatment. For Indian patients, many of whom face high cancer burdens and variable access to care, such an advancement could be profoundly impactful-provided regulatory and accessibility pathways align.

You don’t get a chance to die from cancer after this shot. You did from something else.
100% efficacy has a very specific meaning and it is not what apparently some of our folks on this thread think it is.
In this context, it means all of the recipients showed response. It does not mean all of them went into full remission and the tumors all disappeared. It means All 48 showed some sort of tumor response. It could have been a reduction of 1 mm and it would still be called response.
And this is a phase one or their equivalent. They saw efficacy but if it’s a phase one trial all they were looking for was safety. So when one wants to know what the 5-year survival rate is that’s not what this trial was about.
That may come about in subsequent trials, but an early phase clinical trial is not going to have any statistics on survival.
And, of course, if it’s a brand new treatment there can’t be any 5-year survival measurement.
Although Russian biologists and biochemists weren’t as famous as their chemical and physics scientists, they were still pretty good.
Maybe they’re on to something. Maybe not.
Its a false choice.
I trust NEITHER.
At this point... not sure anyone does...
The reality of Russia... it reminds me of going to Mexico... they have their “featured” cities where things look great - but get outside of those areas, and its not so great... Ukraine quite similar.
Then again - we can say that about quite a few areas of the USA now too...
“...better educated than Americans.”
That’s really not a true statement. Russia, like most non-US nations, exercises a great deal more control over education... and not everyone goes to college/Univesity. Not everyone gets a “free” education, regardless of ability, desire, behavior, intellect... Lots of “merit” (or who you know and your bank account) in education beyond what we might consider “middle school”. Tracking of students is still a big thing there - the brightest are channeled one way, and the “labor-type” are funneled another.
Actual illiteracy is startlingly high in Russia (as a whole) for a supposed First-World nation.
We also have a race problem in America where popular culture makes it "cool" to ape a certain race, and their disdain for education in particular.
1979-1980 began the “great lie” - that all American students needed college. The propaganda flowed (guess where from: The US Department of Education, Jimmy Carter’s dream agency). The entire scam drove demand through the roof, with tuition and related costs likewise skyrocketing. All while colleges and universities have grown dumber and push a massive volume of literally worthless, non-academic “majors” and degrees.
Russia (and many other nations... even some far more Leftist than us) still treated higher education as something to be earned/deserved/worked for - and it generally limited admissions to those with ability, drive, and often $$$).
I thought Castro and Cuba cured cancer years ago. That’s what one of the alphabet networks said.
“Russians are better educated than Americans. Even under communism they were better educated. I would not be surprised if the cure for cancer originates in Russia.”
No comment on this vaccine but I doubt even Russia’s lies can reach that of our own drug companies.
But this does remind me of a story where the Russians claimed that they inherited something like 150 rocket engines from the Soviet days which had technology that we were convinced was impossible (far better performance than we could build), and they wanted to sell those engines to the US. So we sent our rocket scientists to Russia to watch them test. The engines performed just as Russia promised.
So the skeptical rocket scientists said “How about we send our own test equipment and repeat the tests”, Russians said: “Fine, bring it over” - same results, engines did just as the Russians claimed.
So the skeptical rocket scientists said “How about you guys send some of those engines over here (to the US) and we’ll test them on OUR test stands”. “Fine, we’ll send them over” - same results, engines did just as the Russians claimed.
So, Orbital Sciences Corporation (US company) wound up buying them, and they engines performed just as the Russians had claimed, and many launches took place.
Moral of the story - when a country FAR BETTER educates their kids than our America-hating Leftists permit, don’t immediately discount their claims.
Hopefully this is true and the Russians have developed such a vaccine. One thing is true. The cure for cancer will come when a vaccine is developed that will induce the immune system to destroy cancer cells that contain unique antigens. Most serious oncology research these days focuses on immunotherapy, not chemotherapy.

It’s sad that people are so blinded by Russian hatred that they can’t see the potential in this gene therapy method for treating cancer. The approach makes perfect sense to me. Rather than injecting a chemical in the body that takes a blunderbuss approach, gene therapy is custom designed in each individual case to instruct the immune system to attack only specific cancer cells. Granted it has to be subjected to more trials, but the approach is a sound one.
Are they trsting this exclusively on gay men?
No adverse reactions. None.
Okaaaay...
Russian hatred?!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pard, there are none so blind.
It’s not just Rooskies.
I don’t trust anybody’s Big Med anymore...
And I’ll bet I’m not alone.
Has there been an uptick in colorectal cancer since the CoupFlu vaxxes came out?
The CoupFlu vaxxes have to shown to cause reactivation of latent viral infections.
Inquiring minds want to know...
See my reply #35.
Russian hated, my gluteus maximus.
Latent, dormant...
Take with a grain of salt - but wouldn’t it be nice if true and it pans out?
I bet Big Pharm would work overtime to stifle it...
Much of this is perceptive.
But in the US you have a powerful anti-Russian bias that often isn’t tied to reality: https://cset.georgetown.edu/wp-content/uploads/STEM-Graphic-1-HD-1536x1159.png
1.) antiquated Cold War stereotypes persist even though Russia has a new constitution, privatized much of their economy (pre Ukraine war they had a LOWER share of GDP under government control than us!).
2.) socially not on board with our fads and tends (LGBTQIA, climate change, racism, aggressive secularism, supra nationalism/globalism). The Sochi Olympics in 2014 were the perfect example. We couldn’t shut up about gay, gay, gay, and how Russia is bad because they don’t applaud gayness.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26043872
3.) they are still our only true competition in the oil / gas domain. The whole world basically runs on energy where either the US or Russia control the real estate, refining, etc. in the background. Example (US): Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE; (Russia): Syria, Iran, Venezuela, Libya.
China has a US media engagement plan to include outright owning some US media outlets or paying for articles to be published as well as inviting key US journalists to tour China etc. They lobby and blast their media over US airwaves (they aren’t censored much). They have a lot of leverage because we manufacture there, China is a huge market, and they hold onto a lot of US securities. They actively court US policy makers (Chinese subsidiaries in the US give to the party, campaigns, and ensure key players get compensated etc). Finally, they are militarily a force second only to ours (Russia was before this build up, militarily weak).
Russia meantime is this outsider with a near information vacuum, no lobbying, heavily censored (Trump just rolled this back a little: https://www.rt.com/news/624309-us-terminates-eu-censorship-agreements/amp/).
In such a world where you only get one side of the story and you have a powerful underlying bias, example Ukraine, guess what perceptions become?
Don’t get me wrong, Russia isn’t our buddy, and they aren’t some shining city on the hill either.
But when you have the US government and Euros censoring, hard. When you have the US private sector (often in bed with the government,example Google) censoring hard, you get a very one sided narrative.
Meta for example has been censoring all along but went vocal and all out last year:https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/meta-bans-rt-russian-disinformation-rcna171402
But at the same time, no kidding, Meta allowed literally neo-nazi groups to communicate, train and organize using their platform:

What do you think happens when people get fed ONLY one side of a story?
IMHO, the information domain is one of the reasons why this war in Ukraine happened.
Most Americans didn’t even know what Russia’s point of contention was (at the beginning of the war), all they knew was Russia = bad, with our new media talking about war of aggression and unprovoked in every article.
If Russia’s perspective and all the facets of it had really been in the publics consciousness, do you think you would have maybe seen back pressure on this idea of expanding NATO into Ukraine?
Instead, all you had was idiots talking about propaganda if you mentioned another / the Russian perspective (when in reality Russia is being heavily censored) and you have literally our side propagandizing non stop with junk like this: https://www.euractiv.com/section/defence/news/russia-has-no-right-to-establish-a-sphere-of-influence-nato-chief-says/ Name me a country without a “sphere of influence?” In fact, while he’s saying this, you have the UK, France and US flexing their military muscle in their “sphere of influence.”
