Dr. Eduardo Vilar-Sanchez – A Promising Vaccine for People Genetically Prone to Early Adult Cancer

How do you know if you have a genetic condition that increases your risk of certain types of cancer? 

For people with inherited conditions like Lynch syndrome, the risk of cancer is much higher, yet most don’t even know they have it. 

Dr. Eduardo Vilar-Sanchez is a physician-scientist at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, working on new ways to stop cancer early, including a vaccine designed to train the immune system to recognize and fight it.
