U.S. Department of Defense Fully Funds Phase II Breast Cancer Study in TapImmune (TPIV) Clinical Trial

TapImmune (TPIV) is developing immunotherapies for a variety of cancers that are designed to target both tumors and metastatic disease. The company's next-generation technology is designed to overcome the deficiencies of earlier cancer vaccine approaches and has the potential to be a powerful standalone therapy or part of a leading combination regimen by complementing other approved or development-stage immunotherapeutics (i.e. checkpoint inhibitors). The company's off-the-shelf vaccines boost patients' immune systems to comprehensively stimulate both killer T-cells and helper T-cells to destroy cancer cells.

In short, TapImmune (TPIV) is developing cutting-edge vaccines that attack ovarian and breast cancer with a vengeance.
