ASCI: against growth, recurrence and spread of tumors
ASCI has the potential to treat cancer whenever the cancer antigen is displayed on the cancer cells: it could prevent the spread of a tumor, stop the growth of an existing tumor, or even make it disappear.
ASCI could therefore potentially prevent cancer from returning when administered after the surgical removal of a tumor (referred to medically as the “adjuvant setting”).
Likewise, ASCI may potentially help prevent the progression of cancer even after it has already spread to other parts of the body through metastasis (called the “metastatic setting”).
