Vaccine

I read somewhere about prostate cancer vaccines. Are they available yet? And do they work in a similar way to the cervical cancer vaccines, ie given to youngsters as a preventative treatment?

Thank you.

Re: Vaccine

Unfortunately there are no prostate cancer vaccines available yet. Would be a major advance if one could be developed.

Hello Mr Karim - thank you for your reply - must have mis-heard then. Just thinking my grandsons could benefit from such a thing in the future perhaps.
