Pill could cure deadly cancer
"I have been working on small cell lung cancer for many years and to find something that can take a measurable piece of tumour and make it go away is wonderful."
- Professor Seckl
A drug which destroys tumours in a form of inoperable lung cancer has been developed by scientists.
In early clinical trials, the drug killed all traces of the disease in 50% of the mice it was tested on, as well as blocking the cells' ability to resist standard chemotherapy.
