Need not be from the US of A....Ever hear of "Angiozyme?"......."JX-594"?....."Aflibercept (VEGF Trap)"?

These are currently being tested abroad for potential use against colorectal cancer....You never know

    Thanks Steve!
    There was a thread on the colon club forum last week which talked about 2 exciting possibilities, both initially developed by Dr. Gerrie Potter in the UK. We don't know when the cure or next life-extending drug will come out or from where; I only hope SOON!

    These are being developed /tested in India, Europe, Russia
    and the Middle East.....Worldwide, CRC is the third most common cancer in men and the second in women. It accounts for almost 8 % of all cancer deaths, the fourth most common cause of death from cancer worldwide. Its eradication is of concern everywhere....For us, sooner, than later!!!
