Chapter 37 Miracle Medicine
Lin Weinan's attending doctor learned about the situation through other colleagues, which surprised him.
Except for some patients who had no response, their cancer continued to progress.
For some other patients who participated in the experimental group, the results were unexpectedly good.
He also learned that a child patient in the neurosurgery department who had a brain glioma also participated in the experiment.
Because the location of children's tumors is not good, it is in the brainstem, so it loses its surgical value, and gamma knife and targeted drugs are not effective.
The child's condition was very serious and he often fainted.
Although this is cruel, it is true that there is not much time left for this child.
There are a lot of bastard sons in the world.
But there aren’t many bastard parents.
This child has this disease, and the child's family is really heartbroken.
Even if the doctor says there is no need for treatment.
But the child's family is still willing to spend a lot of money on medical expenses every day to keep the child in the hospital.
The purpose is to leave more time for this child.
I also hope to stay in the hospital, the place where miracles are most likely to happen.
Then.
The experimental team from [Xuanhu Technology] came over.
When the child's family heard the news, they jumped in and joined in.
As a result, the efficacy is very good.
The doctor in charge of the audiology surgery department said that after a CT scan, the glioma in his brain shrank significantly, and many metastatic lesions found in his body also became much smaller, and some even disappeared.
Blood tests showed that all indicators improved significantly.
In direct proportion to the data, the toddler had lost his ability to move and could only lie on the bed.
But after taking the medicine for a period of time, I was able to get out of bed.
Although he was still very weak, he was able to eat without the need for a glucose drip to deliver nutrients to his body, and he gained some weight.
Seeing this, the child's family burst into tears of joy.
During the doctor's rounds, the child's parents knelt down in front of the doctor and thanked him for saving their child.
The doctor in charge of the neurosurgery department had to persuade the parents to stand up and said that it was Xuanhu Technology's work. If you want to thank [Xuanhu Technology], just thank [Xuanhu Technology].
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
One month later.
Lin Weinan's attending doctor looked at the new drug experimental results compiled in his hand and was speechless for a long time.
[Xuanhu Technology] selected hundreds of people from their cancer hospital for this phase of the experiment.
This exceeds the general clinical phase 1 experimental standards.
Moreover, these test subjects are all terminal cancer patients of various types.
There is no cure, and many have entered the terminal stage.
According to the statistics table of Lin Weinan's attending doctor, about two-thirds of the patients have experienced medical improvement, and this is not an ordinary improvement. There are patients whose cancer cells can no longer be detected. This is not just one case, but There are several examples.
The proportion of those whose disease has not improved, has not changed or continues to worsen is one-third.
Lin Weinan's attending doctor looked at this data and wondered for no reason whether the one third who had not improved were taking a placebo.
If the two-thirds of the cases that showed significant improvement were caused by taking the real [redizumab].
Then this drug is really not simple.
To describe it as a magical medicine is not an exaggeration!
Especially so far, those experimental subjects who have improved have not experienced any obvious side effects. On the contrary, because many cancerous tissue cells in the body have undergone apoptosis and have not caused pressure on normal cells, tissues and organs, the situation is getting worse and worse. good.
And those side effects with no obvious characteristics have not been found so far.
This is even more [divine]!

】
Such obvious medicinal effects cannot be concealed from others.
First it was the doctors discussing, then the patients.
The patient's improvement is obvious.
Especially getting along day and night.
Lao Wang, Lao Ma, and Lao Cai all participated in this experiment. Lao Ma, Lao Wang, who were about to say their last words before, have all improved significantly, but you, Lao Cai, are still very sick and will not die.
Who would have doubts!
Why are you getting better?
And I'm dying?
It would be okay if it were just one or two cases.
There are quite a few examples of these.
Many cancer patients have contact information during the long-term treatment process in order to help and cheer each other up.
Some even set up WeChat groups.
In the group, some people talked about these situations and compared them with others, and they got a general idea in their minds.
After all, in this information age, it is very easy for everyone to obtain information. Everyone knows that if you enter the experimental group, you will not really get the experimental drug, but there is a certain possibility of getting a placebo.
In fact, the effects of general new drug experiments are not that outstanding.
Maybe it will get better, but it won't be as exaggerated as [ledimumab].
Patients in the experimental group were not able to guess the ingredients of the drugs they took so easily.
But who calls [ledizumab] so amazing?
It would be fine if it was another disease.
But this is cancer!
It's still late stage cancer.
These patients are wandering between life and death every day.
If there is no cure for everyone.
Although everyone will be desperate, in the end everyone will accept their fate.
But now it's different.
There is a [magic medicine] that can save their lives and make their diseases better.
And the reason now is just because of that damn luck, they were not selected to be the real experimental subjects of this [miraculous medicine].
If there is a glimmer of hope, no one will give up.
They didn't have a choice before, but now they all want to live.
And those who have this idea are not only those terminal cancer patients who participated in the experiment but did not get the real [redizumab], but also those patients who were diagnosed with mid-stage cancer.
Although the five-year survival rate of patients with intermediate-stage cancer is higher than that of patients with advanced-stage cancer, those with stage III and IV tumors are higher.
But this five-year survival rate is just a cold number on paper. When it really falls on the patients and their families, it is a heavy mountain.
They also want to live better and live longer.
So, they first asked their attending doctor about [ledimumab] and asked to buy [ledimumab].
[Ledimab] is still in the first phase of clinical trials and has not yet been marketed.
The hospital has no way to purchase it.
There is no medicine in the hospital, and doctors can’t prescribe it even if they want.
The doctor told the patient about the situation.
