- skohan 9y agoIt might seem like noise, but there is progress being made. My cousin's girlfriend takes a pill every day which has basically eliminated her lung cancer for all intents and purposes because it targets the specific mutation which is in the problem in her case. Relatively new T-Cell therapies "train" the body's own immune system to recognize and delete cancer cells with much fewer negative effects than traditional treatments like radiation or chemotherapy. Stories like this don't mean an end to cancer, but it's still very good news.
