There will never be a "pill" to cure cancer since cancer comes in hundreds if not thousands of forms, each one requiring a specific treatment. Some successful, some not.....
The biggest obstacle to cancer R&D is the govt's control over all research and when the pharmaceuticals are allowed to begin treatment on humans........
Remember the Thalidomide babies of the 50's and 60's?
govt’s control over all research
Exactly! And how many of those in government have stock or other interests in the companies doing the research? DEregulation would improve our health care industry.
