Mayo Clinic research finds immune system responds to mRNA treatment for cancer
Adding messenger RNA, or mRNA therapy improves the response to cancer immunotherapy in patients who weren’t responding to the treatment, Mayo Clinic research shows. Immunotherapy uses the body’s immune system to prevent, control and eliminate cancer. The study is published in Cancer Immunology Research, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research.

IMPRESS study: maximizing immunotherapy with precision biomarkers to fight cancer
Mayo Clinic researchers are doing a deep dive at the molecular level to maximize the potential of immunotherapy to fight cancer. Immunotherapy — using your body’s immune system to identify and attack cancer cells — is a promising treatment for many types of cancer. But it’s expensive, associated with potential side effects, and doesn’t work […]

Protein May Predict Response to Immunotherapy in Patients with Metastatic Melanoma
By Jeff Briggs 
Biomedical research is a large part of the mission at Mayo Clinic and here at the Center for Individualized Medicine, as we wrote about in a recent blog. News of a study that was funded in part by the Center’s Biomarker Discovery Program was just announced that may help immunotherapy for patients with metastatic melanoma. […]
