Cancer 'Vanishes' In Every Single Patient In Drug Trial

Doctors have seen "unheard of" results in a small drug trial on a group of cancer patients. As reported by The New York Times, scientists conducting a drug trial on 12 patients with rectal cancer saw a 100% success rate with a new treatment. Called Dostarlimab, the drug uses laboratory-produced…

12 patients doesn't seem like a big enough sample size.

It's just a test, it will get bigger if it keeps proving to be successful.

12 patients, it's too early to start celebrating. Add a few more zeros.

not celebrating just hoping

not celebrating just hoping

It certainly sounds promising.

It's about time we had some good news, and whilst early days yet, it's still good news.

I'm pleased science and technology has reached the point we can even do things like this.

Eradicating natures inbuilt self destruct is as much as a blessing as a curse.

isn't it more like failing hard drive and corrupt data than self destruct

Isn't it fixing broken code in DNA ?

We'll still die of something, just something that isn't as nasty

Very much this, now indeed it might be a very specific form of cancer too, but seemingly this might be able to be adapted to other uses

I'd celebrate for every single one of those 12 people who are now cancer free.

I'm wondering if going public with this was a good idea?

I know if I had that paticular type of cancer I'd want to get on the trial, which will be almost certainly limited to small numbers

This looks promising, although we'll need to find treatments that cover other cancer types too.

Does anyone remember UD (United Devices)? It ran from the early 2000s and it was the precursor to crypto mining, in that your CPU mined work units into useful data for analysis back in the laboratory for cancer research. UD ended around 2007/8 and I don't think anything else replaced it. We no longer run P4 1.4GHz - P4 2.8GHz of the 2000s. I'm sure we could come up with something like this again but using the monstrous power of nowaday GPUs.

Isn't this similar to Folding @ Home?

Dostarlimab, sold under the brand name Jemperli, is a monoclonal antibody

Still. It's significant.
100 percent, must be something in it

This would be the end of the world. Overpopulation. The drug is likely to be banned or be mega expensive

i bet you're the life and soul of the party!

Not really, because our ticker would stop, but this is a very good sign.
