I am afraid we all will no longer be living when this resulted in an approved cancer therapy.

There are and will be clinical trials

Chat GBT's simplification for the abstract.

"Certain enzymes that control a substance called phosphatidylinositol (PI) are often changed in cancer, making them a target for drug development. This study looks at a group of enzymes known as PI5P4Ks, which regulate PI inside cells. One type of this enzyme, PI5P4Kα, affects a hormone receptor (AR) that helps prostate cancer cells survive. When prostate cancer is treated by lowering male hormones (androgens), these cells adapt by changing their use of PI. This study shows that PI5P4Kα plays a role in this process, and when blocked, it weakens the cancer cells' ability to survive, making it a potential target for new treatments."
