Researchers at the University of Georgia and the Mayo Clinic hope they’ve found a way to harness the body’s own immune system to fight cancer.

Early results are promising; their vaccine reduced the size of breast and pancreatic cancer tumors in mice by an average of 80 percent. Mouse tumors are not exactly like human tumors, however.

Looks promising in mice and like they'll start testing it on humans. Could be a huge breakthrough though.
