Cancer may be spreading at rate higher than ever, but that’s also all the good it has going for itself right now. In a medical breakthrough a biotech company from Israel has claimed that they will have a cure for cancer by the year 2020. That’s not so far!
While there are many treatments currently in the market that offer treatment for cancer, none of them can wipe it clean, 100%. But Accelerated Evolution Biotechnologies Ltd (AEBi), founded in 2000 from the ITEK Weizmann technology incubator has made bold claims to cure the disease completely.
The chairman of AEBi (the Israeli company) said in an interview with a leading daily, he is positive about the cure of cancer and will be effective from the very first day and will for a few weeks. Additionally, their medicines will have “no or minimal side-effects”. He further said that the cure for cancer will be available at a much lower cost than other treatments available in the market.
CEO of the biotech company Dr Ilan Morad said they started with identifying why other cancer-related drugs and treatment are not working and then they looked for an effective way to counter it.
Unlike most cancer drugs that attack a specific target on the cancer cell, MuTaTo attacksthe cancer cell's receptors from three different directions.
“Instead of attacking receptors one at a time, we attack receptors three at a time. Not even cancer can mutate three receptors at one time," said Morad, to the daily newspaper.
After a successful mice trail, Morad said that the company is now preparing to try medicines on humans through this year. Following this, they will introduce the medicine in the market by next year.
We have our fingers crossed for this to come true!
