This tells me that if a Nobel Scientist calls these experiments the most
exciting cancer research of his lifetime, then there IS something to
these candidate compounds that makes them more promising that the many
other drugs that have made their way into clinical studies. And it DOES
qualify as a significant breakthrough, with respect to the results of the
animal testing.
