This sounds great, and I'm happy for those who had good results.
But what happened to the other 102-43-28-15 = 16 patients? Because if they all spontaneously combusted after taking the treatment, that might change how you view things...

I think the numbers are worse. The 43 includes those with tumors that shrank or disappeared. In otherwords: 43 (shrank and disappeared) = 28 (shrank) + 15 (disappeared).
So what happened to the other 102 - 43 = 59? Still it's roughly 40% chance of improvement when other treatment methods have failed, which I think a lot of people would be willing to take. I'm often skeptical about early results though.
How much is the jab? If you have United Healthcare, you are not getting jack shit.
Best we can do is "the stab" it's like the jab but much more painful. Oh and it doesn't have medicine in it.
The cheaper option is a free "poke" behind a "dumpster" and there definitely is something in that injection.
But it relieves all symptoms within minutes. Terms and conditions may apply.
Handguns kill cancer
I wish the media would stop calling a shot a “jab”. Ever since COVID everyone calls any kinda shot a “jab”.
It's the Guardian. The New York Post of the UK.
The Guardian is still a better in most regards. However, I think their quality of journalism is gradually declining over the years.
I thought that was the daily mail
No the daily mail is the toilet paper analog in the UK
Cancer jab where jabs grow on jabbys
I guess we can’t expect better than “the jab” from “the guardian.”
Test subjects were administered Amivantamab.
England has referred to vaccines as jabs long before it started to be used as a pejorative.
I remember reading somewhere that (especially) Russian disinformation campaigns learned British English. They, pretending to be American anti-vaxxers, spread it to the dialect of the dumbest Americans.
'Jab' is basically a case study in skipped localization.
Nobody is confusing which meaning they meant.
Use of the word to mean vaccine is just reductive and awfully informal.
it doesn't mean vaccine, it just means an injection of any kind - at least in the UK

OOTL: what’s wrong with jab?
It's just awfully informal and reductive for something life-saving and sophisticated.
Imagine a paramedic saves your life and you call them a meatsack.

I've only heard it in the context of antivaxxers. Apparently it goes back further in the UK, but that's when it broke containment.
All the antivax bullshit started from the piece of shit grifter doctor Andrew Wakefield back in the 90s in the UK.
Well, the guy who kinda caused the modern anti vac movement is an UK export, might be that.

This just in, the Trump administration has banned this medication.
"Cancer is nurgles gift" or something
Woah, this is HUGE. That's so cool! Good things are still happening! Woo!
Cant wait for the antivaxxers do backflips over this
Isnt it anti jabbers now
Some movies like "I Am Legend" have this as their plot, where it does not end well, so they are already prepared.
I think it's a zombie book called Feed where the zombie apocalypse is brought about by two generically engineered cures, one for the common cold and the other for cancer. The upshot is that there's no more common cold and there's no more cancer, but there is a zombie apocalypse so that's a bit of a downside.
So long as Will Smith is in it - surely nothing can be bad in a situation as long as he is involved? (/s btw 🤪)
It's not a vaccine.
I hope whomever patents it gives it away.
Johnson and Johnson, so... Not likely.
If they don't, it still won't stop India from flooding the market with the generic versions.
its a biologic medication, the suffix ending with -mab always is associated with biologic. if you have psoriasis they use these kinds to treat them, or an autoimmune disease.
This isn't so much a jab as an upper cut
Shoooryuken!!
But what about all the people who have died from cancer‽‽‽ Is their sacrifice in vain?
/s of course
