Cure Worked On Mice To Receive Testing On People

Winston-Salem NC- Beginning this week at Wake Forest University an exciting potential therapy that has cured cancer in mice will start human testing.

In the last 2 years there have been several mice that have been cured, and the testing has received approval from the federal Food and Drug Administration to begin human trials.

The Cancer therapy involves transfusion of white blood cells into the body of cancer patients.

The cells all come from donors who are cancer resistant.

The treatment is slated to work toward unleashing white blood cells into the body of the person that has cancer allowing them to pro actively attack the tumor and cause the cancer to go away.

The testing in mice has been so successful that the methods have won cautious approval from the FDA to begin testing in humans.

Every single mouse that has been giving the treatment that had cancer was successfully cured, and researchers are excited about the possible application in humans.

The trials will be on several different types of cancer over the next couple of months.  Research will continue on other methods but right now this appears to be the one method that has the most promise.
