Stopping all cancer with a single drug?

That’s the hope of Dr. Irving Weissman of Stanford University. According to Science Magazine:

A single drug can shrink or cure human breast, ovary, colon, bladder, brain, liver, and prostate tumors that have been transplanted into mice, researchers have found. The treatment, an antibody that blocks a “do not eat” signal normally displayed on tumor cells, coaxes the immune system to destroy the cancer cells.
