Pill For Prostate Cancer In 2009 Posted: 01-23-07 13:05pm
A tablet designed to emulate the healing
power of the sun could be available for
the treatment of advanced prostate cancer
as early as 2009. But it remains to be
seen whether the drug will be the
revolution in prostate cancer care that
its makers claim.
The drug, asentar, is based on vitamin d
and is given to patients in the advanced
stages of prostate cancer along with
chemotherapy drugs.
