New therapy cures cancer with just one injection
Current cancer therapies have terrible side effects and aren’t always effective. And with things like radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the number of treatments one needs to endure makes side effects progressively worse over time. A new technique developed by researchers at Stanford University uses two agents which when combined, alert the body’s immune system to the presence of cancer, in order to eliminate it.
Just one injection can be effective for a solid tumor. Such a targeted approach could limit nasty side effects and may even be more effective than current therapies. These results were published in the journal Science Translational Medicine. Dr. Ronald Levy was the study’s senior author. He told Medical News Daily, "When we use these two agents together, we see the elimination of tumors all over the body."
Dr. Levy and colleagues injected minute levels of two “immune-stimulating agents,” into malignant solid tumors in mice. The most remarkable thing is that it treated not only the tumor it was injected into, but distant malignancies at other locations inside the body. Researchers believe it’ll be able to treat all different kinds of cancer. Using T-cells to kill cancer has long been a driving focus of immunotherapy..."

A BOY FROM TANDALE
Msanii wa muziki wa Bongo Fleva, Diamond Platnumz amesogeza mbele tarehe ya kuachia album yake ya kwanza ya ‘A Boy From Tandale’.
Album hiyo ambayo awali ilitangazwa kuachiwa tarehe 23 Februari mwaka huu imesogezwa mbele hadi tarehe 7 Machi 2018.
Uongozi umeeleza kuwa sababu kubwa ya kusogeza tarehe mbele ni kupisha zoezi la utambulisho na kusimamia kazi za msanii mpya wa WCB, Mbosso ambaye ametambulishwa wikiendi iliyopita.
Tazama Mbosso alivyotambulishwa na Diamond Platnumz ‘WCB’.
