The Information Exists.
The Access Doesn't.
Over 2 million Americans are diagnosed with cancer each year. An estimated 10,000–20,000 of them could benefit from personalized neoantigen vaccines — treatments custom-built to target their tumor's unique mutations.
Roughly 30 patients per year actually receive them.
Why the Gap Exists
Patients Don't Know
Most patients and even many oncologists are unaware that personalized cancer vaccines are available outside of clinical trials through FDA expanded access programs. The research exists in medical journals, not patient-facing resources.
The Process Is Complex
Getting a personalized vaccine requires coordinating across genomic sequencing labs, bioinformatics platforms, GMP manufacturing facilities, the FDA, and an administering oncologist. No single entity manages the entire process.
Cost Is a Barrier
At $100,000–$119,000 and not covered by insurance, the financial burden is significant. Few resources exist to help patients understand what they're paying for or how to access financial assistance.
What ImmunaPath Does
ImmunaPath is a research and navigation resource for patients, families, and physicians exploring personalized cancer vaccines. We provide:
Plain-Language Research Updates
Weekly newsletter translating clinical trial results, FDA decisions, and scientific developments into language patients and families can understand.
Interactive Decision Tools
Free eligibility assessments and cost calculators to help you understand your options before talking to your doctor.
Comprehensive Guides
In-depth explanations of FDA expanded access, the treatment process, costs, legal frameworks, and what questions to ask your oncologist.
What We Are Not
Transparency matters, especially in healthcare. Here's what ImmunaPath is not:
- × Not a medical provider. We do not diagnose, prescribe, or treat. All medical decisions are between you and your physician.
- × Not a substitute for your oncologist. Our tools provide general guidance. Your doctor has your complete medical picture.
- × Not making promises. Personalized cancer vaccines are an emerging field. Results vary. Not every patient is a candidate, and not every treatment succeeds.
- × Not selling treatment. We don't manufacture vaccines, sell medical products, or profit from your treatment decisions.
