Exciting research being done on an 'on/off' switch for BC Mets - let's hope this one makes it thru the trial stages.
Given this study has produced results from a mouse model, the timeline for introduction at the clinical level for *successfully* approved drugs and testing is closer to 12-15 years.
It should be noted that fewer than 5-10% of drugs/tests actually make it successfully through this lengthy research process, which includes 3 phases of clinical trials.
