Cancer, the most dreaded disease, still does not have a permanent cure but efforts are on and miraculous inventions have also been witnessed by the World. This gives us the hope that one day this disease will have a cure.

Adding to our hopes is a group of researchers who have claimed to have found the cure for skin cancer.

A vaccine, which attacks tumour cells, not effecting the healthy cells and carries agents that boost the body's response to skin cancer, is being tested in the UK.

The vaccine till date experimented on few patients have shown positive results. It has helped some patients fully recover from melanoma, even in its advanced stages.

Dr Howard Kaufman, of Chicago's Rush University Medical Center, said: "Our study shows we may have a cure for some advanced melanoma patients and a drug which has real benefits for others.This will save thousands of lives a year."

The launch of this vaccine will be a boon for many sufferers and one of the major discovery in medical science.
