While there are a lot of deadly diseases that we know of, none of those are as deadly and dangerous as cancer. Researchers and medical practitioners have been trying for years to discover a permanent treatment. Although past trials failed to completely cure cancer, for the first time in medical history, a clinical trial in the US saw the first patients who were able to get rid of their cancerous cells and bid them adieu for a full life. Check out the details right below!
The Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in the US recently performed a clinical trial for a possible, non-invasive anti-cancer drug in a small group of 12 patients. The patients were reportedly at the same stage of rectal cancer. Cancer had not been spread to their other organs.
The research of the trial was recently published in The New England Journal of Medicine. It also garnered the attention of an array of Oncologists around the world, with some saying that achieving complete remission of rectal cancer in every patient of a trial is “unheard of.”
