A potential vaccine that would prevent the most deadly and aggressive type of breast cancer — triple-negative breast cancer — is undergoing testing.
The key protein for the vaccine, which would be a "holy grail" of cancer treatment, was found through "a matter of luck and tenacity in going through databases and looking for proteins," Dr. Vincent Tuohy said, almost like finding a needle in a haystack.
The vaccine works by jumpstarting the immune system and attacking any tumors that contain a specific protein that should not be present unless a woman is lactating.
"Once we've established that we can produce an immune response, we want to rapidly move it earlier to the disease process again, to the prevention setting where we think it will have an even greater impact," Dr. Thomas Budd said.
Tuohy and Budd are leading a trial still in its early stages. If successful, the vaccine would be given to young healthy women at higher risk for breast cancer, which is known as a triple-negative.
"It's prophylactic, and it targets six different pathogens," Tuohy said when asked how this vaccine differs from previously seen treatments. "We need a 21st-century vaccine program to develop the immune defenses and primary immune defenses against diseases we confront with age like breast cancer and ovarian cancer."
These types of studies offer hope to women touched by cancer. "I was 35 years old," Kristi Blair said when asked when she was diagnosed with cancer. "My youngest was three at the time."
Blair was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer just four years after her own mother died from the disease. She hopes that her four daughters will benefit from advances in science, like the potential vaccine.
"I'm just really grateful and feel hopeful. It's tangible hope," said Blair, who participated in another trial at the University of Washington. "You are participating and advancing the research that does ultimately affect patients in the future and if not right now."
The medical achievement — that was unimaginable 50 years ago — is now a possibility.
The spike in breast cancer in the modern world is probably due to abortion and contraceptives. 59 studies have shown a link between abortion and breast cancer. Perfectly rational reason: When a woman aborts a pregnancy, and particularly a first pregnancy, the cells in her breast which are preparing to nurse a child, are suspended in a state of flux, leaving them more susceptible to becoming cancerous. Birth control pills are carcinogenic, they contain cancer-causing chemicals. What’s a hidden reason why vasectomies are up in the modern world? Women with cancer are told by their doctors to get off birth control pills. Surprise, Surprise. All this is hidden by a corrupt media which props up legal abortion with the myth that it is “safe” and want women in the workforce and not at home with children. The oligarchs want women in the workforce so they can pay both men and women a half wage.
Not saying all women with breast cancer have had abortions or used contraceptives. My mother is a survivor. It’s a horrible disease.
“...jumpstarting the immune system...”

One “jumpstarts” a DEAD battery.
Does this author, a doctor, realize the brutal implications of her facile choice of metaphor?
To adopt my own metaphor, this appears to be the medical version of our “betters” deviously foisting upon us a main course of “Never let a crisis go to waste.” paired with a nice side dish of “Build back better (á la, the Six Million Dollar Man) and expecting us to swallow it like good children consuming a nutritious meal from their oh-so-loving mother.
Not gonna happen. OGINJ 1.0 is basically all they’re going to get. I hope they are eventually happy with that. Otherwise, we may not end up getting along very well.
The COVID jabs attack the placenta. This treatment attacks an enzyme associated with lactation. The War on Fertility continues.
Praying this is real. The world needs a dose of good news.
Exactly.🙄
30 years too late for my beautiful kid sister.
Won’t stop you from GETTING breast cancer. Won’t stop you from SPREADING breast cancer. It’ll just make your breast cancer more pleasant. Oops. Wrong “vaccine”.
Will it be available for ‘trans’ women?
My wife, literally the “girl next door”, lost a battle with breast cancer at 28 - only 7 months from diagnosis to the end.
I follow potential cures as my girls were 4 and 1 at the time she passed.
My sister was 36. Looked 26 with two small children. People asked me how it affected me. I always said it was the worst thing that ever happened to me including my own death.
If these med beds are real which it appears they well may be and everyone finds out this technology has been withheld from us for 50 years the people responsible will not be able to walk down the street without getting torn apart.
