Could a common medication help fight cancer? And what are American tourists saying after returning to Israel? In today's NEWSMAX Israel Update, Katrina Szish reports on new research from Israeli scientists who say the active ingredient in Viagra may help prevent cancer from spreading. The findings were based on mouse cancer models and decades of research, with clinical trials identified as a possible next step. Then, correspondent Jodie Cohen speaks with American visitors in Tel Aviv and Hostages Square, where tourists share their reactions to returning to Israel and reflect on the country's resilience and recovery.

Personalized vaccines could be around the corner thanks to decades of work by doctors like Michelle Wu. Her story and details on the new breakthrough on tonight's 11th Hour with Ali Velshi.
Last year, Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr. called mRNA vaccines for respiratory viruses unsafe for the public and the National Institutes of Health cut 22 programs totaling $500 million that targeted mRNA vaccine research for infectious diseases. Now, that same technology has succeeded in a clinical trial for treating skin cancer. CNN’s Meg Tirrell reports.
Moderna and Merck shares soared on Wednesday after the companies said a personalized mRNA treatment hit its target of preventing skin cancer from recurring or spreading in a late-stage clinical trial. Why it matters: The results come at a pivotal moment for Moderna and mRNA research, after Trump administration health officials cut federal funding for new vaccines and asserted the technology poses more risks than rewards. - The customized therapy, which could see a commercial launch next year, could also be adapted for other cancers of the kidney, bladder and pancreas. The big picture: The results could lead to a remarkable turnaround for Moderna, whose market value plummeted more than 90% after demand for its COVID vaccine declined…
Moderna and Merck’s mRNA cancer vaccine showed positive results in a late-stage melanoma trial. The vaccine could be available as soon as next year if regulators approve it. Moderna shares surged as much as 160% following the results. Moderna developed the vaccine with Merck and tested it together with Keytruda, a common immunotherapy treatment for melanoma. This is the first successful late-stage trial for an mRNA cancer vaccine. The vaccine works by training a patient’s immune system to recognize and attack specific mutations in cancer cells. It is also the first study to show that adding another treatment to Keytruda worked better than Keytruda alone. Similar vaccines are being studied for lung, breast and pancreatic cancers.…
