Hi folks,
We have new weapon in our battle against mrcc (kidney cancer that has spread). This new drug was known as rad001 when it was in clinical trials and had shown promising results.
I don't have the figures to give you at this time, but anything new to help those who's cancer has spread and other targeted thearapy's have been tried and failed, this is one more to give some of us new hope. At least there is something new. and they are working on other that are already in phase 3 of a trial so that is good news.
