The latest NY Times has a piece on attacking rectal cancer.
A Sloane-Kettering colon cancer trial has had astonishing results. The treatment could take years to perfect and so would be a bit down the road a long while....BUT!!
A trial was carried out with 18 rectal cancer patients, a small number of participants, so don't open the champagne yet!! The rectal cancer completely "disappeared" in every single patient! This is the first time ever a tumor shrunk to zero and was found to be undetectable through every test they could use.
They seem to believe that this is a giant leap in cancer treatment for rectal cancer. Cancer is such a multifaceted disease and the "cure" in this case is just the beginning of a long road for patients.
Let's hope this is not a manipulated or overblown claim? It sounds promising. To find the story, check out below.
