Can vaccines help prevent liver cancer? Here’s what the science says

Hepatitis B vaccination stands as a powerful tool against liver cancer, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma, by preventing chronic HBV infections and subsequent liver damage. Studies demonstrate significant reductions in liver cancer rates in regions with widespread HBV vaccination programs. While HBV-related liver cancers decline, those linked to obesity and fatty liver disease are rising, emphasizing the need for comprehensive prevention strategies.
