Abstract
Cancer ranks second after cardiovascular diseases for death. Breast and prostate cancer were the most common types of cancer among men and women, currently. Over the years, a lot of research has been done to detect cancer at an early stage so that it can be managed at an early stage to improve its prognosis and reduce its drastic outcomes. Prevention is better than cure. So, enormous research is carried out to develop an anti-cancer vaccine. Treating the disease process with target specific therapy than the conventional chemotherapy is preferred, which would not only minimize side effects but also result in a better prognosis and reduce the treatment period with better results and preventing recurrences.
