Very interesting study from Duke Cancer Institute. The drug, navarixin could be promising in that it targets the CXCR2 receptors on on the surface of neuroendocrine prostate cancer cells.

Good stuff. This has been posted previously but it’s good you bring it to the forefront again. A reminder to us hoping for a cure or at least a better treatment of a clinical trial to sign up for. As Don Pescado says, “the science is coming!”

Why not try to take Navarixin just now instead of waiting for several years to the end of this trial?
