A VACCINE that could deal a serious blow to seven in 10 lethal cancers has been developed by scientists.
科学家研发出一种疫苗,可有力地抗击70%的致命癌症。
In tests, it shrank breast tumours by 80 percent and researchers believe it could also tackle prostate, pancreatic, bowel and ovarian cancers.
在试验中,这种疫苗让乳腺肿瘤缩小了80%,研究人员认为该疫苗还能治疗前列腺癌、胰腺癌、肠癌和卵巢癌。
Even tumours that resist treatment with the best medicines on the market, including the "wonder drug" Herceptin, may be susceptible to the vaccine.
就算是市面上最好药物(包括治疗乳腺癌的“万灵药”赫赛汀)也无法治疗的肿瘤,可能也会屈服于这种疫苗的威力。
The experiments so far have been on mice - but researchers hope to pilot the drug on people within two years. If all goes well, the vaccine could be on the market by 2020.
到目前为止该疫苗的试验都是在老鼠身上进行的,不过研究人员希望能在两年内将该药物在人身上做小规模试验。如果一切进展顺利,这一疫苗可能将于2020年上市出售。
Rather than attacking cancer cells, like many drugs, the new treatment harnesses the power of the immune system to fight tumours.
这种新疗法并不是像其他许多药物一样抗击癌细胞,而是调动免疫系统的力量来对抗肿瘤。
