Oh Lord let it be🙏
Praying so hard for this! Thank you for sharing.
Trials on terminally ill patients will start in November🙏
Let’s hope they get a move on!!

Based on the fact that this is a brand new discovery and the first clinical trial already starting in November, this seems a pretty fast timeline. It usually takes forever to start a clinical trial. That's what made me hopeful.... cautiously hopeful ❤️
I didn’t realise they were starting human trials so soon....fingers crossed this is the start of something positive....when I asked my oncologist 25 years ago about my worry over having daughters and them getting breast cancer...he said not to worry as there’s be a cure by then...yet there still isn’t!!!!

This made my day! I will ask my oncologist about it when I see her in a few weeks. Shes a researcher so may have insights.
Oh how I hope so. I am in U.S. so we will get it later. It sounds so great. Blessings Hannah 🙏
So I am clueless on how trials work. If they start this trial in November how long do they run it till they say if it works or doesn't ? 1 year 2 years????
Impossible to know. It all depends how many will be in the trial and if it's a double blind trial. The FDA is known to give accelerated approval on distribution to the population. But that has happened on patented drugs and I'm not sure how an immunotherapy would qualify for that. This is so new and so little information is available. My gut tells me it will be first available for those that can afford it. Hopefully I'm very wrong on that.
So excited about this! Thank you for posting! Thank you Jesus, please let this become available fast for all those suffering from cancer; open the channels and let it flow freely to all in need, amen. I love you, Jesus!
Amen
found this link as well, the other one I couldn't read everything because I am not a subscriber. thank you so much for posting! <3 xo eurekalert.org/pub_releases...
I'm such a nerd too! Here's the article in an easier to digest form and see it's potential. If we don't keep hope we have nothing.
That is amazing and yet another reason to give us hope. Thank you for sharing!
Yea! The British are coming! The British are coming! (I seriously don’t care who finds the cure!) whoever it is I’ll cheer them on! 🎉🎊🎉
😄 me too❤️

I was not able to read the entire article without paying, but I think I got the lede/gist of it, and it's so interesting!!!
I've been really intrigued by the connection between our own immune systems and cancer. My sister and I were both diagnosed metastatic 5 years ago, after initial diagnoses 5 year prior. I'm doing very well and she's doing incredibly well, since she has triple=negative and takes no meds/treatment, aside from an occasional surgery to remove tumors in her lung. Her life expectancy at metastatic dx was 9 months...we're now 5 years in and she's NED. I'm doing well, but have widespread bone mets and sometimes wonder if the fact that I take meds that suppress my immune system is actually working against me? I.e. if I have a physiology/immune system that could fight this off, am I weakening my best weapon? I don't know, but I'm not willing to give up the drugs....yet!
My sis and I are both participants in a study out of U. of Wisconsin re: "extreme survivors" of BC...they're trying to figure out why some women live a long time. Maybe this immune system factor noted in the article is part of that? I'll reach out to my contact there to bring this up, because, yes, I am that pushy! 
Thanks for sharing....
Best, Lynn
Hot flashes and night sweats oh my!!
