But any discovery like this could lead to a preventative vaccine down the road.  That is how the war against cancer will be won.  Little victories here and there.  I don't think they will come up with any "universal" cure to all the cancers out there any time soon.

Quote:"We think it may be an effective way to prevent cancer from developing or recurring, so that’s where a lot of our team’s excitement comes in,"

Like I said, if it's given regularly, and cancer can't develop or grow, then what damage can it do?  

Also, if it stops developing, then it would be easily treated with things like radiation or other treatments that aren't as damaging as chemo.  

There's other similar quotes in there, also.
