Trojan Horse
 

Don't know whether you've seen this news story about a new form of drug to attack cancer. Unfortunately, the story only said that the therapy is "applicable to a wide spectrum of solid cancer types." And it did not specify what types of cancers the trials will address, even though the trials are starting soon according to the article (And I don't know whether the reporter asked that question. If I were editing this story -- which is what I do for a living -- I would have had the reporter go back and ask the scientist, and if the scientist wouldn't say, then we'd put in the story that she declined to comment).

SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian scientists have developed a "trojan horse" therapy to combat cancer, using a bacterially-derived nano cell to penetrate and disarm the cancer cell before a second nano cell kills it with chemotherapy drugs.
