Well this is ironic. Even if it is only in the first stages of testing this, 2 of the 3 patients got cured , and the 3rd patient got his cancer weakened.
Modified HIV sounds dangerously cool.
So we have taken a huge step towards curing cancer?
This is wonderful news.
Take an evil, turn it against another evil.
EXCELLENT

Well, leukemia is blood cancer, but still, it seems like it is a huge step.
And soon this will be forgotten and never seen again.
This is brilliant news for once, but doesn't it sound a tad dangerous?
So 2 wrongs, make a right?
I find that M. Night Shyamalan picture strangely fitting.

Depends on what you prefer...AIDS or Cancer.
[QUOTE=Atlascore;32321343]This time because it's just too fucking dangerous, not because of corporate bullshittery.[/QUOTE]
I don't see how it is really dangerous. first of all, it uses a modified HI Virus, which is harmless to the T cells, and only manipulates to attack the Cancer cells. and even if something went wrong, it is a trade most people who have cancer would take i think. You can life MUCH longer with HIV these days.

Please, I want to see this as a commercial product. MAKE IT HAPPEN!

if you think anyone is going to reference that awful movie i suggest you invest in books
My aunt has cancer. Wonder if this could help her. But somehow I'd say this research will suddenly disappear in a few weeks or so.

Hey Lankist Im'ma let you finish but while I am Legend isn't the best film ever Will Smith did an awesome job so I suggest [I]you[/I] suppress your urge for sweeping statements.
The cancer is dying of AIDS. badass
"So.. uh, sir..
Would you like to die of AIDS or Cancer?"
No, but seriously, this is great news.
so how long until this theory is debunked, and the research disappears forever?

I Am Legend was amazing you just don't think it was because Will Smith is black and you're a racist.
...Is it still sexually transmitted?
I'd spread the shit out of that cure.
I just had a thought. Has anyone with AIDS previously also contracted cancer, or does AIDS naturally attack cancer and they just made this variant of it to specifically target cancer?
Really? I thought of this while I was high like a year ago.
Wonderful. I wish it's true this time.

"Baby, my penis cures cancer."
I cured cancer years ago by changing my avatar to a cartoon character and nobody's writing about me in the papers :(
So can we use that vaccine which prevents/heals HIV in exchange of herpes afterward?
