Here's CTIC's new lead drug. It's already well down the road.
From a previous post:
"I think people are missing the major potential drug in CT-2584. I read from New Scientist ( newscientist.com ) in the 29NOV, 1997 issue that this drug bypasses the usual multidrug resistant mechanism(MDM) where the survivor cells learn to activate cellular pumps that pump out toxic materials at 100 times the rate of normal cells." The net result of bypassing MDM is that the tumor is unable to pump out the toxic materials targeting its destruction.
