Breakthrough in cancer research provides hope for patients

Within the next couple of months researchers at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland Ohio will be at the verge of beginning clinical trials on human beings for a research that may lead to a major breakthrough in cancer treatment.

This research, already discussed by oncologists in some leading medical science journals, involves using a virus to attack cancer cells wherever they are in the body. If successful the clinical trials may lead to the discovery of a drug that will be as simple to administer as taking a panadol. The costs of cancer treatment may also come down drastically.
