This[edit]

This page appears to be quite spammy. Also, the article is about a UK company but uses US "tumor" not UK "tumour", but I've left those.

The end line about "rumoured to be interested" should probably be deleted too. DanBeale 13:49, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The rumoured to be interested should be changed to the fact that sanofi-aventis entered a global development and commercialisation agreement for TroVax in March 2007 Clark 14:31, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

I've now done that, but this page still needs work WRT referencing and links.Clark 14:46, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Opening Paragraph[edit]

The opening paragraph is inaccessible to anyone (me included) who doesn't have a background in medicine. "delivers a novel proprietary tumor-associated antigen, 5T4, using a pox virus vector", for example. Thedreamdied 19:46, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It also includes an untrue statement, referenced to 2006, that no cancer vaccines have been proven to prolong human life. There is one that has been proven to do so and it is commercially available (for prostate cancer). Chuck — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.70.148.42 (talk) 20:19, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
