Why hasn't there been a breakthrough in any kind of medicine since the 60's?

Were still using chemo, were still using antibiotics, and the VAST majority of the drugs people use were created in the 80's or earlier

Why can't big pharma push the envelope anymore? Is it because the FDA became too autistic and strict with their double blind trials and strict requirements for drug creation?

Literally when was the last time there was a real breakthrough in medicine? A REAL one. Not "curing AIDS" for the 10,000th time.
