Early success for new cancer vaccine

[Tombstone]

Australian scientists have developed a vaccine which may be able to prevent some cancers from recurring.

In the trials so far, the new technique has proven successful in stopping cancer in animals.

Now doctors are hoping to test it on patients.

Scientists at Canberra's Australian National University have been working on a vaccine which can switch on the body's defences against cancer.
