  Russia? Cancer treatment?

  Well, I guess they are getting ready for the worldwide radiation spike.

  Reading the article, kinda happy that different countries are working on different cancer fighting mrna options that currently are on different phases.

    That’s the thing about scientists. They dont give a fuck what country you are from.

    They are so used go working with people all over the world they might be the least hateful and least racist people ever.

    They just want to see the world burn cured.

    Their governments on the other hand…

      There are different scientists. Some want the world only populated by people of their race, only speaking their language (or other languages changed so that every translation were linear), and only with their ideal system of government.

    If the world diversifies locations for medical research sites, that can only be a good thing for humanity as a whole.

    Meanwhile, in the US of A, people are fighting tooth and nail to avoid vaccines

    Pretty much the only way we’re going to get cures rather than treatments

  Can't read the whole article due to paywall. Here are 2 thoughts for the half that i did read.

  • colorectal cancer makes a lot of sense as a target. it still is one of the most cancers with the highest mortality. At the same time we saw an uptick in colorectal cancer rates in young people (reason unknown, maybe microplastics maybe something else.). Furthemore colorectal cancer seems to be a great target for immunsystem modulating therapy. There was a paper 3 years bake in I think the NEJM where they put 18/18 (exact N not sure) patients in remission with PD-1 modulation which also activates the immun system.

  • Astra Zeneca (I believe) is also working on a mRNA vaccine for cancer that is quite far along. They are targeting melanoma in remission and reduced reoccurence of melanoma or metastasis after 3 years by 50%. So it seems like mRNA cancer vaccines will be a strong pillar for future cancer treatements.

  Sadly we saw in the past that russia sometimes bolsters their numbers for medication efficency. I hope it is not the case this time but i hope that the phase 2/3 trials will be very transparent to quench any doubts.

    How dare you suggest that most trustworthy Russia on Earth would be anything less than truthful? Hope you like gulag.

      With Covid vaccines it wasn’t like this. And I should remind you of Theranos and its backers.

  Isn’t colorectal cancer the type of cancer Putin has? This can’t be a coincidence

    Eh if they come up with a reliable way to defeat it I’d say it’s worth it.
