Generally, surgery for melanoma is not very hardcore. Since we're talking about the skin, they just cut out the area. It's not a complicated procedure and is the standard treatment for melanoma.
Cancer treatments often gave multiple components to them. Ex: someone gets chemo and then surgery as part of a standard for certain types of cancers at certain stages.
It wouldn't make any sense for someone to get this vaccine and for them to leave the cancer on the patient.
This is huge news, contrary to what you say. Melanoma has a crazy mortality rate. Cutting it in half is a huge success.
Is it affordable yet? Clearly not. But that doesn't mean that it can't get there eventually.
Again, press releases are not the place to get science.
The point of press releases is to boost stock prices, and that didn't happen, which says analysts looking deeper into the data are not convinced.
There is a deep trench of bullshit hype to swim through with pharma data, and the FDA is not the agency to trust any more.
I will give you that. I definitely am on board with that. People love to link pop sci articles with dramatic headlines, but the reality often isn't as dramatic. Pop sci articles definitely are one of my pet peeves. People will be like "cure for cancer found!" when in reality it's just some sort of in vitro testing that destroyed cells. Cancer cells are also killed by bleach and fire, but those aren't helpful for its treatment in humans lol.
So I get it lol. I guess I was just playing devil's advocate for a moment.
