Sometime in the past week someone mentioned a new drug coming out that targets tumors 3-ways (something like that). I read it quickly, meant to save it, now I can't remember which thread it was a part of. (i hope i wasn't just dreaming this) Bring out all the ammunition.

    Thanks Phil. As always,
    Thanks Phil. As always, that's good information as well. I think someone actually named a drug that is coming out. It was in the middle of a thread, so the titles throw me off as I'm searching. It has to be in the last 2 or 3 pages. I've been looking for 2 hours.

    eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2011-06/chb-tcr060811.php is an article "The cellular root of colorectal cancers?"

    medicalxpress.com/print226584377.html has"New pretargeted radioimmunotherapy for colorectal cancer"


    and "Breast cancer drug pushes colon cancer cells to their death" was at:eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2011-06/ps-bcd060711.php while
    eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2011-04/pcc-apn042611.php should get you :"A potential novel drug-target for colorectal cancer treatment comes from the brain"

    You might also want to google Zaltrap or PX-866 or ImprimePGG
