Flavius Aetass posted:in what way? people (esp. politicians) treat cancer like its, idk, a flu or something. It's a disease that can be treated with medicine that goes in your body. cancer is a side effect of being alive. if you live long enough, you will get cancer. "Curing" the condition would involve totally rewriting how we work as a species, and we're still stumbling around in the dark figuring out which molecules actually work because we can't even nail down fundamental principles in most cases like "this is how you treat thing." Cancers that we can strangle to death by inhibiting hormones are in a very good place from a treatment perspective, everything else is still the wild west and something that resembles a "cure" is, in my mind, unlikely in our lifetimes.

We've gotten better and are good at selecting radioactive agents (see like I-131 for thyroid cancer) that are preferentially selected by the place we're trying to treat so we don't just murder you entirely, but its still a lot of radioactives. experimental treatments can and do work in some cases, but we really don't know why they do work and why they don't work. Also sometimes the treatments just kill you.

like i can't remember the exact stats and what-not, but some of the immuno-oncology like treatments are really good at treating certain forms of lymphoma and have a much higher success rate there. The fun and exciting secret is we don't really have a good sense why they work better there than other places. There's alot of hypothesis, of course, but nothing that's really born out in clinical trials.

The really out-there drugs, on the cutting edge of our ability to handle the "actual bad" cancers, are still measuring their successes in terms of "months alive after diagnosis." Not years, months. Weeks better than existing treatments, months better than placebo. This is the stuff they're bothering to run trials on.

when I visited Amsterdam and was stoned as poo poo for a week straight, I was convinced you could make a million bucks by setting up one box those fry stalls in an American city somewhere. like, what are your costs? potatoes? you can whip up a gigantic batch of mayo salsa and charge people a buck a squirt.

Also the hot thing right now in cancer start ups is taking old molecules and saying "Wait, wait if we apply these new assumptions then they it may work great doing <x>" Which investors are like falling over themselves to fund because they've already gone through toxicity trials

Inspector Hound posted:What about crispr china's doing some experimental trials with it for cancer treatments (which only started in 2017), but i imagine it's only broadly applicable if you can determine the mutations that are causing each specific cancer and then edit them out CRISPR has a lot of potential but it gives the impression of a lot of trial-and-error and fumbling in the dark to find solutions. the fact that you have to test the more radical treatments on living human beings also slows down the process
