Cancer represents a serious challenge to public health and the global economy, and its incidence continues to rise. In 2020, more than 19.3 million cases were reported, and this figure is estimated to reach 28.4 million by 2040, driven by population growth and ageing.
Oncobiomed Advanced Cell Technology S.p.A., based in Santiago, Chile, is a biotechnology company specialising in the development and technology transfer of cancer vaccines based on immunogenic lysates.TAPCells® and LycellVax® have been designed as therapies for colon cancer, melanoma, prostate cancer and other types of cancer. These technologies have already completed phase I or phase II clinical trials and have demonstrated superiority over other therapies due to their long-term clinical effectiveness, absence of adverse effects, and adaptation to the economic and social realities of emerging countries.
The global immunotherapy drug market was estimated at USD 284 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach around USD 1.3 trillion by 2033.In this context, Oncobiomed is valued at USD 32 million, and its technologies are estimated to reach projected sales of USD 6 billion for melanoma and USD 27 billion for prostate cancer.
The success of the immunotherapies developed by Oncobiomed has benefited more than 300 patients, whose clinical results have been published in scientific journals with global impact. The company has also obtained, logrando además la patents to commercialise its technologies in Chile, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Mexico, Brazil and Israel..

Dr. Salazar is a pioneer in Chile with this technique
Dr. Salazar is a pioneer in Chile with this technique. The vaccine is more than interesting because it gives the immune system the opportunity to recognise the tumour cells based on something that is native to the human body. That is different from what happens with conventional therapies, such as chemotherapy, which in many cases fail to get the immune system working again. If there is a chance of recovery, it is through these treatments.

Everything was gone, there were no more tumors
The treatment lasted between March and June 2010. And it worked. First, they told me metastasis had been reduced and then, in September, the scanner showed there was no detectable metastasis. Everything had disappeared, there were no more tumours. I continued with controls every six months until 2014 and since then, I get controls once a year. I’m healthy.

These have been my best years since I was diagnosed
In 2006, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. After undergoing surgery in the United States and radiation therapy without achieving the expected results, I decided to contact Oncobiomed. Since then, I’ve been able to keep my prostate antigen levels under control safely. These have been my best years since I was diagnosed, as I’ve managed to extend my life without any side effects, unlike other traditional cancer therapies.

I got the vaccine and went on with my normal life
In the midst of the pandemic, at the end of 2020, I was diagnosed with melanoma cancer. After having a tumour removed from my ankle, I contacted Oncobiomed to complement the procedures I was already receiving. The main advantage of this treatment is that there are no side effects and it is a personalised procedure. It is not something they did for the disease in general. They gave me the vaccine and I continued with my normal life, my hair never fell out, nothing.
