RE: So we have a " CURE FOR CANCER "28 Sep 2023 20:57
Had this email this morning from Prostate Cancer UK to which I make donations .Interesting they refer research to resistance to treatments and a new delivery system to treat resistance tumours Resistance appears to be a big problem and Avacta to be very much ahead in this field of research
"Thanks to many years of research, supported by you, treatments for prostate cancer are more effective than ever.
But for some men, their prostate cancer can become resistant to treatment and start to grow again. With your help, we’re funding researchers like Professor John Callan from Ulster University to develop new treatments that overcome this resistance. "
Professor Callan and his team have found a new combination of treatments, and a unique way to deliver them, that they believe can help control prostate cancer that has come back - packaging chemotherapy drugs in microscopic bubbles.
It sounds like science fiction, but if it works, this microbubble treatment would be more targeted than existing treatments, reducing side effects and improving and extending the lives of men with prostate cancer
