Vaccine against lung cancer
More medical progress:
DALLAS - An experimental vaccine wiped out lung cancer in some patients and slowed its spread in others in a small but promising study, researchers say.[via Instapundit]
Three patients injected with the vaccine, GVAX, had no recurrence of lung cancer for more than three years afterward, according to the study of 43 people with the most common form of the disease, non-small cell lung cancer. ...
The cancer disappeared in three of the advanced-stage patients. Two of those patients previously had chemotherapy, which failed. In the rest of the advanced-stage patients, the disease remained stable and did not spread for almost five months to more than two years.
