End Of Century Marks Dawn Of Clinical Trial Era For Cancer Vaccines
Ricki Lewis | Apr 2, 1995 | 7 min read
The ends of centuries are momentous times for immunology. Edward Jenner introduced the first vaccine, against smallpox, in 1798. New York surgeon William Coley originated immunotherapy in 1893, when he infected cancer patients with killed bacteria to stimulate immunity against their tumors. And now, in the 1990s, "cancer vaccines" are finally in widespread clinical trials. Cancer vaccines are making headlines and have been the focus of five international scientific conferences in the past two y
