Crowdfunding now underway for clinical study which aims to activate patient’s immune system with personalized therapeutic cancer vaccines
Lombard, IL — When it comes to chemotherapy, the risk of harm on a systemic level is well-known; An effective anti-cancer treatment in the very early stages of cancer, that can stimulate patients’ immune system has been highly sought-after. XEME Biopharma, Inc. is introducing an experimental, personalized therapeutic vaccine in asymptomatic, early stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients, for whom the only clinical option is “watchful waiting”, in other words waiting for the disease to progress before initiating standard treatments.

While the trial can’t guarantee results, previous clinical trial experience at the National Institutes of Health – National Cancer Institute in related lymphoma patients demonstrated safety in 21 patients, with indications of efficacy
