Yes "hopes" thats more like it. I was just curious why it was worded in a way that could easily be mistaken from reality? From the original quote (below) anyone who didn't know better would think this is happening in actual human patients correct? I know when I think of patients (as in treatment, NOT reading some posts) I figure them to be humans and NOT mice.

The actual the definition for patients states;
(Noun)
"A person receiving or registered to receive medical treatment.

I'm sure it was just an oversight by (whoever) originally wrote it.... Probably PharmaCyte, sounds like something they could EASILY misword.

"Pancreatic Cancer Drug Works Against Accumulation of Malignant Ascites Fluid in Colon Cancer Patients"

New updated quote;
"The research team hopes their pancreatic treatment will be effective in reducing malignant ascites’ fluid accumulation in colon cancer patients, while reducing the number of fluid withdrawals that patients must tolerate. The goal is to help patients who suffer from ascites fluid accumulation, a major problem for patients suffering with abdominal cancer which causes pain and other serious complications. When ascites’ fluid levels get to a certain amount, they must be removed — a costly and uncomfortable procedure for patients. "
