For The First Time Ever, Doctors Have Cured A Woman With Advanced-Stage Terminal Breast Cancer

Judy Perkins after completing a 1,200-mile kayaking trip around the state of Florida is ready for another 1,200 miles of pure suffering. The reason this is important because for the first time ever, doctors have cured a woman with advanced-stage terminal breast cancer. An experimental new approach that combines new immunotherapy drugs with a tailor-made therapy to boost her own immune system pulled Perkins back from the brink of death. Perkins, who is now 52 has been cancer-free more than two years now. The most important fact that one needs to remember is that cancer is unique to every patient, and that treatments must reflect that, a new drug has to be developed for every patient.

The treatment had the team taking samples of her tumors and sampled it by infiltrating the immune system cells that were stuck to the outside of the tumors. Once the genetic mutations that allowed the tumor cells to take over their victim’s body were identified, the immune cells that were latching onto those particular mutations most effectively were grown outside Perkin’s body and then re-infused back into her system. She was also dosed with immune-boosting drug interleukin 2, as well as with Keytruda and the results speak for themselves as she could feel the tumor in her chest area becoming softer and smaller. Doctors said that she probably had two to three months to live if not for the treatment, they also said that this treatment was introduced as a last resort after all other methods had failed.

 

This immunotherapy could well be the next step in the war against cancer but studies have shown that only 1 in 12 have a chance of success. You dont have to be an engineer to know that those are not good odds, but a one is infinitely more better than a zero.
