Redefining the Future of Melanoma Treatment: Scancell's Bold Step Forward

Melanoma is the fifth most common cancer in the UK, accounting for around 4% of all new cancer cases. While immunotherapy is a standard treatment for advanced melanoma patients, only about half of patients respond well, leaving the rest at risk of disease progression and metastases. In a new pharmaphorum podcast, web editor Nicole Raleigh speaks with Phillip L’Huillier, CEO of Scancell, about how the company develops novel immunotherapy products for the treatment of multiple cancers, as well as its recently announced partnership with the NHS Cancer Vaccine Launch Pad, and latest data release from the Phase 2 clinical SCOPE study in melanoma. L’Huillier discusses their melanoma-specific vaccine, and more broadly this pivotal time in immuno-oncology and possibilities on the near horizon.
