“THE CANCER VACCINE will give viewers a front-row seat to one of the biggest events in history unfolding in real time – the scientists racing to find a potential cure for cancer,” said Tom McDonald, executive vice president of Global Factual and Unscripted Content, National Geographic. “With unprecedented inside access, we are honored to be able to shine a light on the heroes – the scientists, patients and people, who are working to combat this disease that affects far too many of our friends, families and neighbors.”
Imagine a world where a cancer diagnosis - even the most aggressive kind - no longer means brutal chemotherapy or a death sentence and a world where every individual cancer patient gets a bespoke drug, individually tailored to the unique genetics of their tumor, which could keep patients cancer-free for the rest of their lives.
THE CANCER VACCINE will take viewers to the frontlines of breakthrough science alongside the scientists, researchers and patients at the heart of this extraordinary endeavor, culminating in a story of inspiration, heartbreak, suffering and joy.
From Academy®- and BAFTA-winning Oxford Films (“Hilary and Jackie,” “Restoration” “Diana, Our Mother”) and directed by BAFTA-winning filmmaker Patrick Forbes (“The Phantom,” “Wikileaks: Secrets and Lies”), THE CANCER VACCINE takes viewers to the heart of the cutting-edge research and patient trials that could have the power to change the way cancer is treated forever. From the construction of the huge, machine-controlled factory capable of manufacturing individualized drugs to the crucial trials with select patients whose lives are on the line, this documentary dives into the complexities as well as the achievements the BioNTech team face on their journey toward these groundbreaking cancer therapies.
