Housecall for Health: Winning the War on Cancer

New therapies in the fight against cancer are making real progress, with genetic mapping and drug technologies leading the way.  A new report says hope for patients could be at a new high.

FOX’s Colleen Cappon reports in today’s “Housecall for Health”:

Researchers say we’re closer than ever to winning the war on cancer.  New findings presented at The American Society of Clinical Oncology Conference show a sharp increase in potential cancer treatments, including smart drugs that only destroy harmful cells – while protecting healthy ones – and others that help the immune system attack cancer.

Better testing is also being developed to predict which treatments will work best for each individual patient.
