Vaccine to prevent uterine tumors

Uterine tumors are a common disease among women. So, is there a vaccine to prevent uterine tumors? The University of Tokyo and the National Institute of Infectious Diseases in Japan have jointly developed a vaccine to prevent uterine tumors and plan to enter the clinical trial stage this month.

According to a report by Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun on the 8th, the development of a vaccine to prevent uterine tumors is one of the important topics of the "Strategic Cancer Control Project" program being implemented by the Japanese government.

Because this new vaccine can enhance the body's immune system's ability to fight human papillomavirus (HPV), it is called a "new generation vaccine."

The Ethics Committee of the University of Tokyo has approved the clinical trial.

It is reported that human papillomavirus is mainly transmitted through unsafe sexual behavior. In addition to uterine tumors, cervical tumors, anal tumors and penile tumors are all caused by this virus.

Approximately 450,000 people worldwide develop cancer each year due to infection with the virus.
