New research has uncovered a T-cell receptor that can distinguish between cancerous and healthy cells, potentially leading to a universal cancer treatment.

In this photo taken March 21, 2017, a nurse reaches for blood samples taken from a patient receiving a kind of immunotherapy known as CAR-T cell therapy at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. TORONTO -- A newly discovered type of T-cell receptor appears to be able to distinguish between cancerous and healthy cells, potentially leading to a "one-size-fits-all" cancer therapy, researchers say.

CAR-T, by contrast, scans for specific parts of proteins that can vary wildly from person to person, meaning each treatment must be specifically targeted to each patient – and scientists have yet to find effective CAR-T treatments for many common cancers, including solid tumours. They say lab tests have shown that therapy involving the new TCR can destroy cells associated with cancer of the lung, skin, blood, colon, breast, bone, prostate, ovaries, kidney and cervix, while bypassing healthy cells that contain the same MR1 molecule. These tests were conducted on mice with human cancers and human immune systems – the same scenario that led to the widespread acceptance of CAR-T therapy.

They can’t even cure the common cold. A more cynical person would believe this is just another press release to gain more financial (taxpayers) investment, pad pensions and extend contracts. commoncold flu followthemoney bigpharma

Yeh right. They can’t even cure the common cold. A more cynical person would believe this is just another press release to gain more financial (taxpayers) investment, pad pensions and extend contracts. commoncold flu followthemoney bigpharma

The fact that they called it 'one-size-fits-all' doesn't impress me. Cancer is to complex to have a one-size-fits all kind of a treatment no matter how hopeful it may sound.

TL;DR: 'it might only be a few years' where 'few' probably doesn't mean what I think it does.

sorry... My kind of cancer has no bearing on breast cancer.. Kidney cancer.. Pancreatic cancer.. lung cancer or anything else.. its not caused by 'normal' means
