In what appears to be a very promising breakthrough for the treatment of rectal cancer, a small drug trial conducted in the US found every patient treated in the experiment had their cancer successfully go into remission.
The medication given, called dostarlimab and sold under the brand name Jemperli, is an immunotherapy drug used in the treatment of endometrial cancer, but this was the first clinical investigation of whether it was also effective against rectal cancer tumors.
The early results reported so far suggest it is surprisingly effective, with the research team saying the successful cancer remission seen in every trial patient may be unprecedented for a cancer drug intervention.
"I believe this is the first time this has happened in the history of cancer," medical oncologist Luis Diaz Jr. from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), the senior author of a new paper reporting the results, told The New York Times.

Not to get too crazy — but if the Powers That Be had some inkling a few years ago that we were about to cure cancer, they probably would have panicked about population, and too many old and unproductive folks, and where will we find the money, and all of that.
It might have convinced people like Bill Gates to make some sort of desperate attempt to reduce global population and global fertility.
Interesting. Smokers should never have been given the leper treatment.
Great news, very promising. We hope that it leads to greater things.
The imp of the perverse in me keeps telling me the joke that
ends with, “rectum! It damn near killed him!”
Maybe some of the ABORTED children could have grown to be a scientist that really finds a cure for cancer or does something with finding a new energy source or some great humanitarian triumph but no the angry vile wicked self-serving SCREAMING women aborted them and had them thrown in the trash. I hope Satan rips them apart in hell for eternity just like they did.
“but if further research can replicate the bright promise hinted at here”
Another glorified press release, fishing for funding. Why do people keep falling for this?
In the first sentence they call it a trial drug. In the second sentence they say it is sold under the name…
In other news, the same drug has been banned because it has an adverse effect mosquitoes that bite patients using this drug. It would be animal abuse if this were true and so out of abundance caution on the mosquito population, this drug will not be used.
Sloan Kettering...along with Dana Farber in Boston and MD Anderson in Houston...is the best cancer treatment/research center in the world.
it has been approved by FDA under certain circumstances
the drug is mentioned in a rheumatology article...might be a way to get it if you have an autoimmune disorder

marked,,,,,,thanks
Hope springs eternal.
I have heard it said we likely aborted the people who could have found the cures for many diseases.
so here is some information that talks about the genes involved. I looked at one and had over 50 variants. Going to have to do some more research to see if I should be on alert
genes MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2
This was posted a few days ago... I’ll repost what I wrote there:
I am leery of any drug ending in “mab” as many of them were developed using humanized mice (including this drug). List is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_therapeutic_monoclonal_antibodies
Some of these mice are humanized with fetal tissue/fetal stem cells and it is not always easy to find out which ones. Here are some:
Under “Ethical Statement”
Humanized NOG-EXL mice (highly immunodeficient NOG mice) expressing human GM-CSF and human IL-3, engrafted with CD34 human stem cells

Big Pharma is not going to like that!
Sloan-Kettering saved my life in 1993 at age 46 (esophageal cancer). I’ve recently survived rectal cancer thanks to the good people at the Winchester Virginia Cancer Center.
