Last year, this man was dying of pancreatic cancer - the deadliest cancer among others. And today he is completely healthy.
According to statistics from the pancreatic cancer in the first five years after the diagnosis 96% of patients die. 80% do not survive a year after diagnosis. The British Kevin Jones discovered inoperable cancer, and the man decided on a radical new Cancer Treatment . Now he's healthy.
The man knew that his disease - a death sentence, but put up with it did not want. He sat down to Internet search engines and came across information about the experimental clinical trials treatment this species cancer . After a few weeks Jones recorded in one such group.
Over the past five years, the most promising method of treatment Pancreatic Cancer irradiation was directed, via which the rays enter the tumor specifically without affecting normal tissue. But some types of cancer due to genetic causes that are difficult to treat. Scientists at the Institute for Radiation Oncology and Biology at Oxford named Gray decided to use a medicine Nelfinavir (originally designed for the treatment of HIV) to enhance the effects of radiation on the tumor.
After the first phase have been 12 patients with inoperable cancer to determine a safe level of the drug. They were given daily doses of Nelfinavir to irradiation procedure. By the end of the study, doctors tested the patients and were amazed - 6 out of 10 patients, who managed to complete the course, previously inoperable tumors disappeared altogether.
The average survival time for all doubled. And in one case, a combination of Nelfinavir with lung tumor irradiation destroyed - no trace of her surgeons was never found.
