Reimagining Cancer Treatment for Non-lethality

The focus is shifting from finding a cure to making cancer non-lethal, acknowledging the constant risk of cancer due to cell mutations. The strategy involves a combination of early detection, precise patient-based approaches, and therapies aimed at eliminating mortality across various stages of cancer. Rather than viewing cancer as a curable disease like infectious diseases, the approach is to manage it similarly to cardiovascular diseases with continuous monitoring, early intervention, and targeted therapies. This shift towards early detection and tailored treatments, including immunotherapy, aims to harness the body's natural anti-cancer mechanisms for a systematic reduction in cancer-related deaths.
