Update on Prostate Cancer Vaccines that I follow... another year is gone...

Greetings FPC forum,

It has been another year... and I would love to have better news... there is a new vaccine candidate to monitor, but the reality is that the system takes time... The system needs a revision in my opinion, but I digress...

As I reviewed the last time, the vaccine trial for RhoVac's RV-001, known as onilcamotide, failed in Phase IIb...

Next, I posted on Advaxis, a company with 2 PCa vaccine candidates-- ADXS-PSA and ADXS-504 ( a neoantigen vaccine-off the shelf).:

At this point, ADXS-PSA has not yet announced a Phase III trial, despite positive phase II results with Keytruda... ( more than 2 years waiting)There is an announcement of the expansion of Phase I trial results for ADXS-504 as below:

I think that an off the shelf vaccine sequenced properly with other therapies might have a real show stopping effect on PCa.

Next, my post on the 2 vaccine brothers being done at University of Wisconsin:

and the trial itself:

The estimated primary completion date is December 2023.

OVM-200. This has been posted on by our own Brysonal, trial participant, on this forum:

The trial:

The new kid on the block--UV1, a peptide based vaccine that targets a universal cancer antigen telomerase... .

and the clinical trial:

clinicaltrials.gov/study/NC...

I thought I saw positive clinical results out in a news flash, but can't find it...Here is some other info on UV1 in prostate cancer:

Hey Max,

That is excellent news.... we'll see how fast they move... lot faster than US... see below:

Could we see this vaccine approved in China in 5 years??...maybe

Yes in China I must say they are moving faster than ever, so I am quite positive that this option will be available soon! 😀

But here is the deal... Big Pharma takes it to China for two reasons--time and cost, the regulatory process is faster, and the total cost for drug development is less--see article below:

communities.springernature....

Now, that was 2012, but even if the price doubled for Total Drug Development cost of 11 million then, that is still much cheaper than the 50 million dollar Phase 3 here...

Prove the concept in China, start a revenue stream plus--hmmm.. will people go to China for it..???

Big Pharma has all the cards, my friend...

See my comment below--prove the concept in China, start a revenue stream in China plus travelers, and play the game while making money...

OVM-200 wouldn't have to get through all 3.... they could take initial phase 1 data, and move to Phase2...regulatory takes 1/2 the time... and in drugs where there is a real need, they can speed up approval

from the article:

In 2018, the average drug approval took just over three years. Drugs that received priority status, meaning they meet an unfulfilled medical need, took an astonishingly short 16 months for approval. In comparison, the FDA takes an average of 12 years to approve a new pharmaceutical compound.

I have a good friend in research field in Taiwan, he told me to wait till the naming of cancers will be changed to the genetic of the cancer instead of the starting organ and you will see an exponential increase in testing and speed (he did not mean only in China in this case) as there will be parallel trials instead of sequential.

The reality is that as we have discussed... The Science is Coming !!! Genetic defects can be potentially overcome by CRISPR... making the disease less aggressive... or resolving some diseases... my version of cancer tested out as no germline, and only something not associated with prostate cancer for the somatic... so how did I get here??..

Look for trials with combos to increase significantly...

Oh another CRISPR fan? :-P

Correct, they will have to find a common ground otherwise there will be problems, but from what I know they are already working in that direction
