The world of Medicine has taken another groundbreaking turn! The shocking discovery of the ‘Cancer-Killing’ pill has shown hope in the fight against cancer. The results have shown to be effective in treating some cancer types like breast, prostate, brain, ovarian, cervical, skin, and lung cancers.
Cancer has been a huge concern for many all this time. Even though much research has taken place, the life-threatening disease had no promising treatment. But this pill by the ‘City Of Hope’ research institute is a game changer. Let’s dive in know what this incredible could mean in treating cancer!
The City of Hope, one of America’s largest cancer research and treatment organization has been developing the new drug for 20 years! Known, as AOH1996 the new drug aims to a cancerous protein variant called proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). In a mutated form, the PCNA thrives and grows cancerous tumors.
“PCNA is uniquely altered in cancer cells, and this fact allowed us to design a drug that targeted only the form of PCNA in cancer cells,” mentioned Professor Linda Malkas from the research team.
The cancer-killing pill is now undergoing pre-clinical trials in the USA. According to the pre-clinical trials, the drug annihilates all solid tumors. But surprisingly leave the healthy cells unharmed.
“Our cancer-killing pill is like a snowstorm that closes a key airline hub, shutting down all flights in and out only in planes carrying cancer cells,” said Professor Linda Malkas.
The inspiration for the research team to conduct extensive studies on developing this came from a little girl. A little girl named Anna passed away when she was only 9 years old. She was suffering from neuroblastoma, a children’s cancer that affects only 600 kids in America each year.
Conclusion
The new Cancer-Killing pill has proven shocking results in the fight against cancer. The long-fought battle seems to finally end with a promising result. The City of Hope research team in the USA has introduced a cancer-killing pill that can treat many cancers effectively. The treatment is the result of 20 years of study and research.
