There are two types of cancer. One that you will die with, the other you will die from. Unfortunately you never know which is which until it is too late. I hope that some immune treatments will be approved soon. Seem to be promising

- JoeAltmaier 4y agoYes! New treatments at the UofIowa are sending patients home cured. Not in remission. Only very specific cancers, and at great cost. But there may be light at the end of the tunnel.
- jacquesm 4y agoThat is incredibly good news, let's hope they manage to expand this kind of treatment.
- adamredwoods 4y agoThere currently is no "cure" for cancer. Patients can get to the NED (no evidence of disease) stage, but cancer comes back unless resected early enough. This may be referring to immunology, which is promising, but only keeps it at bay and needs continuing therapy. It becomes a chronic disease, which is preferable to a uncontrollable disease.

- seanmcdirmid 4y agoThere isn’t just one kind of cancer. So even if a good fix is found for one kind it is highly likely not very transferable to another kind.
