I heard this on NPR this morning. It's still too early to say how well it would work and the study was very small, but it does show promise. And as the researcher being interviewed stated, it would have minimal side effects. I hope this turns out to be an effective and all encompassing treatment. Time will tell.

That's really interesting. I hope they get some research studies going asap to really test it out. I think I'll print out the article and show it to my bosses. They might be interested in contacting that guy to see about future studies.

There are a butt-load of people who were involved in the research Dr. Bell mentioned on the program. You can read about it here. (The journal lists it as an abstract, yet as a subsection of the letters section. Very odd.)

Edited to add:

This is very reminiscent of an article I read years ago about a researcher at the University of Calgary using a rhinovirus to target malignant cells. I wish I could recall more details, but I can't.

Yeah but as I understand it, the research done so far was to see if it would be safe to administer the virus. Did I misunderstand?

That is what I recall Dr. Bell stating as well. But it was still a small research study. I'm curious to know what the next step is.

....

It seems that Wikipedia just updated their site. It appears there are a number of parties doing this form of research.

I hope that this works. Current treatment for cancer is very hard to cope with. I am still suffering the after effects of my whole brain radiotherapy now after 2 and a half years.

Anything that will help would be fantastic.

You stumble across research like this and think what, they are going to give it to you ?

Shit, they put a virus in your milk that attacks the bacteria that makes it spoil to increase shelf life. Yeh, these people are your friends.

Not mine.

Oh fuck off Termy. You know shit about these things so how bout you take your paranoid self away and stop posting on stuff you know nothing about.

ETA: yeah they will just give it to people after and only after it's been properly studied and deemed safe. There is a drug called abiraterone which works so well against metastatic prostate cancer that the company decided to open a research study here in Canada rather than wait for all the red tape associated with making it available in Canada.

I wish them nothing but success with this approach and can, in the end, save many lives.  Hopefully they will continue their work in Canada.  Big pharma and the FDA hold the market on drugs that are that successfully life saving, unless big pharma is responsible for it.  If you ever read the story of Dr Stanislov Buzynsk, or caught the movie I posted about him a couple of months back, you'd be outraged over the greed and the act of playing God that goes into something that should be a great victory.  Since, you can only rent the movie, but here is a link that used to let you view it in its entirety....and now, just a brief synopsis of his encounter with the FDA over being able to literally cure one of the most lethal forms of cancer.

Here is the full version of the movie on youtube (so it says, but I know it starts out the same way the movie I saw does)   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0ibsoqjPac
