This is the best summary I could come up with:
A “cancer-killing pill” has appeared to “annihilate” solid tumours in early research - leaving healthy cells unaffected.
Professor Linda Malkas, who has been developing the drug, explained: "PCNA is like a major airline terminal hub containing multiple plane gates.
“Our cancer-killing pill is like a snowstorm that closes a key airline hub, shutting down all flights in and out only in planes carrying cancer cells.”
While initial results are promising, the research so far has only concluded that AOH1996 can suppress tumour growth in cell and animal models - with the first phase of a clinical trial in humans now under way.
The pill has been shown to be effective in treating cells derived from breast, prostate, brain, ovarian, cervical, skin and lung cancers.
PCNA had previously been labelled as “undruggable” - and it is hoped the breakthrough could lead to more personalised, targeted medicines for cancer in the future.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Heard about this on the radio yesterday, and looked into it further as we hear about “cancer curing pills” all the time and they usually are nothing. This one does seem to have traction however IF it can make it through human trials. So obviously could mean nothing if it doesn’t pass this phase, and it will be there a long time, but this is very promising news.
Looks like a treatment, not a cure, that will require ongoing supplies of medication. This is a pharma wet dream. We can’t cure your cancer, but we can keep it from growing for just $2000 per pill that cost us $1 to make.
“Why don’t they just cure cancer!”
🙄
At the moment, it doesn’t look like anything, since it’s just now in phase 1 trials, so nobody knows.
But if it does what it says, then yes, it might actually be part of a cure.
And I don’t know if you’re aware of it, as of now we don’t have a cure for cancer: https://xkcd.com/931/
You can look up the average treatment cost today, it’s something like $150000, good for your that you already know the price of this pill and that it’s big pharma‘s wet dream.
It’s being developed for the last 20 years. These pharma companies have spent millions developing it.

I just created the summary! You can find it at https://lemmings.world/comment/894209. (I tried to create the link for your instance but I failed miserably, for which I’m very sorry).
Another way for the new world order to kill the population.
