Hollow microneedle-mediated micro-injections of a liposomal HPV E7(43-63) synthetic long peptide vaccine for efficient induction of cytotoxic and T-helper responses

TLDR
By using the newly developed DC‐hMN‐iSystem, very low vaccine volumes can be precisely injected into skin in an automated manner, and shows potential for minimally‐invasive and potentially pain‐free therapeutic cancer vaccination.

Vaccines for established cancer: overcoming the challenges posed by immune evasion.

TL;DR: How therapeutic benefit can be maximized in patients with established cancers by using vaccines to increase the effects of standard chemotherapies, to establish and/or maintain tumour-specific T cells that are re-energized by checkpoint blockade and other therapies, and to sustain the antitumour response of adoptively transferred T cells is summarized.

TL;DR: This Review deals with recent progress in the immunotherapy of established (pre)malignant disease of viral or non-viral origin by synthetic vaccines capable of inducing robust T-cell responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microneedle technologies for (trans)dermal drug and vaccine delivery.

TL;DR: This review describes different production methods for solid and hollow microneedles as well as conditions that influence skin penetration and the view on research and development that is needed to rendermicroneedle-based (trans)dermal drug delivery technologies clinically useful in the near future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Microneedle Design on Pain in Human Volunteers

TL;DR: Microneedles are significantly less painful than a 26-gauge hypodermic needle over the range of dimensions investigated and decreasing microneedle length and number reduces pain in normal human volunteers.
