holy poop - just finished watching this on PBS. i caught it somewhere in the middle. it talked about energy (new fuel sources) but then more interestingly it talked about a new treatment for cancer. IT 101.

super cool - basically it's about a bio-chem guy whose wife had breast cancer. during her chemo therapy she told her husband that there has to be a better way. as the side effects of the chemo therapy was horrible. he quietly went to the hospitals library to read up about cancer and how cancer drugs work. then he set out to create a new treatment.

it took him ten years to produce this new treatment called IT 101 and this episode shows the first human trial of it. very interesting. the image shown is the image of the first human trial.

if you just want the end result and not watch the full episode here it is. 6 months, 18 infusions of the drug. cancer stopped growing. areas of cancer shown improvement. update on first patent (note at the beginning of the treatment he was given 3 month to 1 year to live) - his still stable, his quality of life is vastly improved (no side effects) and the cancer is still stable. (not growing). and they are still continuing trails of the drug. if all goes well they predict the drug will be available to the public in 3 - 7 years.
