Welcome

The Tumor Vaccine Group at the University of Washington is a multidisciplinary group of investigators focused on the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of cancer with novel, immune-based therapies. Involving scientists, doctors, nurses, and patients, our translational research works to bring the most innovative treatments from the bench to the bedside and to harmonize scientific study with patient care.

We invite you to explore the work we are doing, through scientific research and clinical trials, to further cancer’s diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. This site provides an introduction to immune therapies and our ongoing clinical trials program and pre-clinical research projects.
