Cancer Cure Which Worked On Mice, Will Be Tested On Humans

The new cancer therapy involved the transfusion of white blood cells into cancer patients.

These white blood cells all come from donors who are cancer-resistant.

The idea behind the treatment is to unleash these white blood cells into the body of the patient, allowing them to attack the tumor and beat cancer.

Scientists are reportedly very excited about the start of the human trials, as every mouse they tested it on over the past two years ended up being completely cured.

The researchers recently won approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to begin the human trials. This comes as they have cut down the risks and will try to cure several types of cancers over the next couple of months.
