Cancer Healing Without Treatment? New Antibody 'GT103' Shows Promise After 25 Years Research
- •Dr. Edward Patz of Duke University researched for 25 years why some cancer patients survive without specific treatment.
- •He discovered a special antibody, 'GT103', in the blood serum of patients whose cancer did not progress or returned.
- •Lung cancer patients with natural 'GT103' antibodies showed better outcomes; Dr. Patz founded 'Grid Therapeutics' to develop it into a drug.
- •Initial trials on 31 lung cancer patients showed cancer growth stopped in one-third, and one patient's tumor completely disappeared.
- •Scientists are now testing 'GT103' with immunotherapy drug 'Keytruda' to enhance its effectiveness, aiming to activate the immune system further.
