In cancer research, prevention is the name of the game. There is so far no further progress in the realm of stopping the actual immune responses of cells that become cancerous, and there is no way to stop the proliferation and abnormal cell growth associated with the formation of tumors, although research is being done to make sure that one day that will be possible. The findings in that part of cancer research are extraordinary, and the secret to how cells react and “make decisions” is going to be unlocked, hopefully within our lifetime.
