A member asked:
Will cancer ever be cured or completely eradicated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say.: I'm sure the future of medicine holds promise for lots of people and many medical conditions. One of the basic issues is that a cancer cell's metabolic processes are so similar to those in a regular cell, so how do we differentiate between the two to target the cancer cells and not the regular cells?
