Kanzius' approach seems different than typical nano/targeted therapy in that it uses nanoparticles in conjuction with RF to heat and destroy cancer cells. Studies specifically on the Kanzius approach so far don't seem to mention downsides. At least this is how it appears to me.
I think if money is an issue, play up the potential savings to insurance companies or business that pay insurance premiums which must be costly at least in part due to cancer. If we could generate adequate funding by linking the issue to profit motives, maybe we could pay researchers the same as practicing oncs.
And again, I get the sense that this approach is only being investigated/funded by the US. Hello world? Wouldn't soc medicine countries want to release resources to reduce the huge burden cancer places on their systems?
Making the effort worldwide, it could benefit from lower costs of research in other countries. I just feel so many parties have so much to offer/gain from this yet it's being handled so narrowly.
And yes..I want it all and I want it now. I'm selfish that way.
