This article discusses about cancer vaccines including the role of microbes that are respon-sible of human tumor, the mode of action of cancer vaccines and the efficacy of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines in preventing various benign and malignant condi-tions, including cervical cancers caused by HPV.
