Just so everyone knows, remission is not removal of cancer. Remission is when a cancer shrinks instead of grows.
This antibody added about 5 months of survival....not great. And for that 5 months they'll charge the populace $20k-50k most likely.
That's not true.
go read the actual NEJM article for this antibody. It is absolutely not a cure. It extended survival by 5 months.
edit: I was wrong. Thought this was the breast cancer trial not colon cancer.
I read they were all ok 18 months later!
Ah, I thought this was the recent breast cancer trial, not colon cancer.
Pretty impressive.
