Yea sure, it works on all cancers, common colds, headaches, ... anal warts and fissures too... Oh and toenail fungus

Amazing that she has not opted for DCVax... 🤣

DCVax-Direct trial: A Phase 1/2 clinical trial (NCT01882946) investigated DCVax-Direct for various solid tumors, including some abdominal cancers like liver, pancreatic, and colorectal cancers. However, information on the trial's status and results is currently unavailable.

Perhaps, someone at King's College can help inform her of options...

If they removed sufficient cancer and properly preserved it they could make DCVax-L. The way the announcement was made it sounded like they failed to find the cancer during the extensive surgery, and if you believe it, it was after she was released from the hospital 2 weeks later that cancer was found. If that's true, I would think their was very little cancer in what was removed, but frankly it doesn't sound like what they're announcing really happened that way.

I doubt very much that they would use DCVax-L even if they had sufficient material properly preserved unless it previously had been successfully tried in the compassionate use work that's been done in the UK on at least a couple patients with the same form of cancer. Of course we don't have an accounting of what has been done in compassionate use, but Dr. Ashkan and others no doubt do.

The fact that the King and Princess are both being treated for cancer ought to bring added attention to work being done in cancer there. I doubt it will accelerate the approval of DCVax-L, which could come in the next 60 days, but when it's approved it may get more attention. JMHO.
