Abstract:
This review summarizes the most recent findings and the newest approaches in the design of vaccines for breast cancer and prostate cancer. The antigens associated with breast cancer and prostate cancer and their use in vaccine development are discussed. We consider the comparative aspects in the new vaccines and focus on their clinical potential. The future directions in designing cancer vaccines are discussed.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
