i've just never heard of a t-cell yet that specifically does not target normal human cells while exhibiting pan-cancer cell recognition, so thought it was an interesting one. Human trials in november so will be an interesting one to keep an eye on.

REMINDER FOR THE THREAD:
>That the political and economic elite will NEVER allow something like this to ever be developed for the modern person on the commercial market. It is already very likely that cures for many diseases already exist, but are kept from the public.

Why? IN short, prolonging life puts an extensive strain on the system, and efforts to stretch a lifespan even further would cripple the system and cause global collapse.

he probably just thinks he doesn't need to worry at all since he's going to be an eternal virgin. but it will be comical once he gets a bad blood transfusion, people that know him (likely coworkers or the guy at the playdoh vagina store as he has no friends or family that gives af) will likely question how he got it in disbelief since the odds of him having sex are 0, not even a prostitute would be willing to put out to him with out a ridiculous amount of cash which he can't afford with his neetbux and being do much of a weakling to rape. so likely we will get a chance to laugh at him here when he comes to cry about it.

Yes I think so. On the one hand the t-cell is targeting a marker of abnormal metabolism. That's very good, because having abnormal metabolism is almost the definition of cancer. But on the other hand it is only a *marker* of the abnormal metabolism. And the cells should be able to evolve into not having this marker.

So I expect this will be help at least bit against all cancers, but it may not be able to wipe them all out.

Oh and one thing to consider: Immune bacteria can spread. But cancer has to start from scratch every time.

>> No.11321866

>>11319307
they do, all the time
that's why cancer is such a bitch to treat and why it recurs so often ad why metastasis is a sign of certain doom down the line. the cells mutate so fast and are under such strong selective pressures that if you don't get the tumour early it will simply escape all treatments at some point
