There are some promising development in mRNA technology and cancer treatment.
In a recent article, the National Cancer Institute wrote that "some investigators believe the success of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines could help accelerate clinical research on mRNA vaccines to treat cancer."
According to the article "Dozens of clinical trials are testing mRNA treatment vaccines in people with various types of cancer, including pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, and melanoma. Some vaccines are being evaluated in combination with drugs that enhance the body’s immune response to tumors."
There is hope that the personalized mRNA cancer vaccines can be developed.

Mayo Clinic's research finds that mRNA improves the response to cancer immunotherpay in patients who weren't responding to treatment. The study is published in Cancer Immunology Research, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research.
