if kevetrin repairs the p53 gene, it expresses p21 which causes apoptosis (death) of cancer cells. if kevetrin is not doing that, then what is keeping ms 80 year old 7 cycle alive? why is she being allowed to take up space so to speak. i suspect there might be two others who are doing well. not sure.
whatever is happening induced someone to sign up for cohort 4. this person has stage 4 cancer with at least 3 months to live, to relinquish his/her present treatment and give kevetrin a go. i think this person decided to roll the dice in kevetrins favor because he/she has been told there is a chance kevetrin might cure/slow down or stabilize his/her cancer by a medical professional.
i too am hopefudl for prurisol but would like to know what is taking so long to put two compounds together.
