Just saw my oncologist today.

Talked to him about this new form of immuno therapy.

Very promising. Although it only worked dramatically on one patient in the study, the control group was very small.

Another one that has shown some hope is Gleevec.

Sure would be nice to take the fight to the Cancer. Really punch it in the nose and kick it around for a change!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the information Euan.
