Abstract
Traditional anti-cancer therapies (surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy) have limited effectiveness in curbing progression of advanced tumors. However, with advances in immunology and molecular biology in the last two decades, the prognosis of cancer immunotherapy has improved. An emerging therapy is the cancer vaccine as adjunctive therapy. The purpose of this paper is to review this therapeutic modality for non-small cell lung cancer.
Keywords: Immunotherapy, MAGE-A3, MUC1, non-small cell lung cancer, tumor antigens, vaccine.

Advances in Nanomedicines and Targeted Therapies for Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer remains a significant global health challenge, with high incidence and mortality rates despite advancements in treatment strategies. Conventional therapies often face limitations such as systemic toxicity, drug resistance, and suboptimal targeting. The advent of nanomedicines and innovative drug delivery systems offers new hope for overcoming these challenges and ...read more
Discovery of Lead compounds targeting transcriptional regulation
Transcriptional regulation plays key physiological functions in body growth and development. Transcriptional dysregulation is one of the important biomarkers of tumor genesis and progression, which is involved in regulating tumor cell processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Additionally, it plays a pivotal role in angiogenesis and promotes tumor ...read more
Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes that aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. The resynthesis of telomeres is supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergo ...read more
