About Anixa Bioscience's Ovarian Cancer Vaccine
Anixa's ovarian cancer vaccine takes advantage of endogenously produced proteins that have a function at certain times in life, but then become 'retired' and disappear from the body. One such protein is the extracellular domain of anti-Mullerian hormone receptor II (AMHR2-ED) which regulates growth and development of egg-containing follicles in the ovaries and is expressed throughout much of a woman's life, with expression naturally and markedly declining during menopause, but which is present in the majority of endothelian ovarian carcinomas. Activating the immune system against this 'retired' protein provides preemptive immune protection against emerging ovarian tumors that express AMHR2-ED. The vaccine also contains an adjuvant that activates an innate immune response, which allows the immune system to mount a response against emerging tumors to prevent them from growing. This vaccine technology was invented by the late Dr.
