Promising research for BC Mets?

Has anyone heard about research being done by Dr. Richard Junghans. I saw a piece on our local news last night about research he is doing with T-cells and metastatic BC. He says he has CURED cancer in mice and he has been given approval to begin phase 1 testing in humans this summer. This link describes the report I saw. http://www.14wfie.com/Global/story.asp?s=10383299.
Cheers,
Brenda
