US Scientists Develop New ‘Cancer-Stopping Pill’ That Can ‘Annihilate’ Tumors
5th August 2023
A group of U.S. researchers has developed a new “cancer-killing pill” that could target and kill solid tumors while leaving healthy cells unharmed.
That’s according to their preclinical research findings, published Aug. 1 in the Cell Chemical Biology journal.
Titled “Small Molecule Targeting of Transcription-Replication Conflict for Selective Chemotherapy,” the study found that a drug the researchers developed was able to selectively disrupt DNA replication and repair in cancer cells.
