Vaccination Against Cancer and Chronic Diseases

Aims

The aim of the Section “Vaccination Against Cancer and Chronic Diseases” is to highlight recent advances in vaccine-based approaches for the prevention and treatment of cancer and other chronic diseases. This Section will provide a platform for novel insights into immunological mechanisms, translational applications, and the development of next-generation therapeutic vaccines.

Scope

We welcome articles examining the design, development, and evaluation of vaccines targeting cancer and chronic diseases, including autoimmune disorders, metabolic syndromes, and chronic infections. Topics may include nanoparticle and virus-like particle-based technologies, mRNA and conventional vaccines, neoantigen discovery, tumor microenvironment-targeted immunotherapies, and personalized cancer vaccines. We invite submissions addressing preclinical and clinical studies, and encourage translational research that bridges experimental findings with human applications. We will consider original research articles, brief reports, reviews, and others relevant article types.
