About Us
CANCERNA’s general objective is the development and validation of novel RNA-based therapeutics targeting non-communicable diseases. The project is comprised of complementary activities to assess mode of action, including: in-vitro and in-vivo validation, bioinformatics, delivery, and safety.
In the past few years, new modalities of immunotherapy have opened a new era in the effectiveness of cancer treatment. This novel therapy modality has joined conventional cancer treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and targeted treatments as a pillar of cancer therapy. Cancers that were completely untreatable (such as metastatic melanoma) are showing dramatic positive responses to immunotherapy. Nevertheless, the huge promise of this treatment is diminished by the fact that only a limited percentage of patients are experiencing durable benefit from this new approach. For most patients,
