The fastest 30 minutes can clear zero cancer cells, which was unimaginable in the past, but with the completion of bnCT anti-cancer boron drugs in Chongqing, the dream shines into reality and is expected to be used for clinical treatment in 2023.
First, 30 to 60 minutes of irradiation, with "nuclear reaction" to accurately destroy cancer cells
BNCT anti-cancer boron drugs, also known as boron Neutron Capture Therapy, are currently one of the most eye-catching anti-cancer therapies in the world. It is mainly used for local recurrent malignant tumors such as head and neck cancer, brain tumors, and gliomas. It has the advantages of high safety, wide indications and short treatment course, and destroys all cancer cells in 30 to 60 minutes at the earliest.
The reason why it has attracted international attention is based on its precise destruction of cancer cells through atomic "nuclear reactions" without damaging normal tissues. According to the general manager of the Chongqing project:
A special compound containing boron 10 is first injected into the patient. Compounds have unique properties against cancer cells
Affinity
, rapidly clustering near the tumor. Compounds use biodegradable materials that are excreted from the body with metabolism afterwards and do not remain in the body.
Use "neutrons" to irradiate the site for 30 to 60 minutes. Neutrons are very harmful to humans, but they can collide with boron-10 atoms, releasing a strong α ray.
3. α rays kill cancer cells. Because the radiation range is very short, only 7 nanometers, about 7/1000 of the cell diameter, it only kills cancer cells and does not affect peripheral cells.
In fact, from the treatment process of BNCT, we can also see many advantages of this therapy. It only takes 1 to 2 irradiations, 30 to 60 minutes each time, avoiding the problem of radiotherapy and immunotherapy resistance; small side effects, no surgery or hair loss; widely applicable, both can destroy nutrient cells, can also eliminate hypoxic cells, small recurrence, effectively improve the quality of life of patients.
With the deepening of research, more applicable diseases such as bladder cancer, colon cancer, and lung cancer are being unlocked. The project leader said that the next step will be to carry out more types of clinical studies.
Second, the cost is expected to be 100,000 yuan, which is only 1/3 of Japan
As early as the completion of the pilot test in the mainland, Japan has listed the first anti-cancer boron drug in March 2020, after completing more than 500 clinical treatments, and is currently included in Japan Health Insurance, with a cost of about 300,000.
At present, the boron drug code-named "GJB01" in mainland China has completed the study of APIs and pharmacies, and has been piloted, and is expected to be listed in 2023. The project leader said: GJB01 and the world's first boron drug is basically the same, and the cost performance is higher. The cost is expected to be about 100,000 yuan, if the next step can enter the medical insurance, according to the 60% reimbursement amount, individuals only need to bear 40,000 yuan. This means that the vast majority of families have the ability to cure cancer!
BNCT therapy is one of the major scientific and technological achievements in mainland China, and it is likely to benefit a large number of cancer patients in the future. In fact, the development of science and technology can not only help people with cancer, but also benefit from a wider base of elderly people. Harvard University Genetics Professor David. Sinclair said: Aging is a disease, and the future can solve it like a cold. In a sense, cancer is a disease of old age caused by aging, and if it can solve aging, it may also solve cancer.
After more than 30 years of research, Professor David discovered a NAD anti-aging molecule (the core component of Palovis pro) in 2013 and published it in the top issue of cell. Because of his ability to extend his life by 30%, he was awarded "100 people with global influence" by time weekly.
According to the aging science account "Time School" composed of Fudan scholars, the molecule is a coenzyme in the human body, involved in thousands of biochemical reactions, and is closely related to aging, in general, the higher the activity, the younger the physiology.
Unfortunately, as we age, the number of this molecule decreases, and symptoms of aging such as muscle relaxation, decreased bone density levels, and delayed neural response occur. Supplementation with the above "Perovir pro" supplement molecules can reverse the above situation. In recent years, the University of Tokyo, the University of Washington, the domestic Qingbei and other universities have successively released NAD clinical procedures, and the results show that aging is reversible and controllable, and the heat-related market heat is stimulated.
At present, consumer giants such as Jingdong in the mainland have Palovis pro, the search index is in the forefront, and the access threshold is only four digits.
Third, science and technology are innovating, and "talking about cancer" may pass
Yin Ye, president of BGI, once said: "If the development of medical technology can only be used for a small number of people, it will be meaningless." If ordinary people can't jump up and touch the threshold, it will inevitably make people doubt the significance of the existence of technology, and this situation is currently being broken.
The 700,000 injections of the treatment SMA were included in medical insurance, the soul was cut to 30,0003, and the personal burden only needed more than 6,000; the two technical upgrades of The Palovir Anti-Aging Supplement were reduced from 20,000 per gram to nearly 1,000 yuan.
Over the past 20 years, people have talked about cancer discoloration, and with the advancement of medicine, this situation is being reversed. Not only was BNCT therapy invented, but ALSO CART cell needles, PD-1 immunotherapy, light therapy and proton therapy, which people can choose according to different individual circumstances. Talk about the era of cancer discoloration is passing, and perhaps in the near future, curing cancer is like curing a cold.
"But may there be no disease in the world, and may the medicine on the shelf be dusted." Everyone is looking forward to the arrival of the day when science and technology will be bright.
