Smile KG5-a new hope for a cure

This article has been in the newspapers today and published in the prestigious journal Nature. Whilst it is not specific to breast cancer it seems like a step towards attacking an Achilles heel of cancer! Let's hope the clinical trials begin soon and prove this to be an effective therapy with few toxic side effects.

Re: KG5-a new hope for a cure

Love the statement: "... the new drug neutralises it without unwanted side effects." Let's hope it will go to clinical trial and be available soon.
