I cant believe this board isnt talking about this. Moderna says they have a successful skin cancer vaccine. This could be the first step in a landslide of cancer treatment options, saving lives.

First I am hearing about this. If it is legit, this might be one vaccine I can get behind.

ELI5: Moderna made a cancer vaccine that is custom for every person.

Doctors read the DNA of your tumor, find what makes it unique, then make an mRNA shot that teaches your immune system, “Attack cells that look like this.”

They combine it with Keytruda, a drug that helps stop cancer from hiding from your immune system.

It just succeeded in a Phase 3 melanoma trial.

Not a cure for all cancer. But a pretty huge idea if it works for other cancers too.


There will be a lot of poo-pooing of this on this board, but this is a massive advancement

Pretty impressive stuff. My youngest daughter has had melanoma 3x before she even hit 30(no pics). I’m sure this will beat MOHS surgery and the resulting scarring.

Just about $149 right now.

I sold my position in late September 2025 for tax loss harvesting at about $26 a share

ETA: I rode up it up to over $400 during covid.
