British researchers have made a dramatic breakthrough against a lethal
form of prostate cancer.
Trials of a new pill have shown that it can shrink tumours in up to 80
per cent of cases, and end the need for damaging chemotherapy and
radiotherapy.
Experts hailed the advance as potentially the biggest in the field of
prostate cancer for decades, capable of saving many thousands of lives.
Scientists believe the technique could also be effective on other
tumours, such as breast and bowel cancers.
The drug, abiraterone, was discovered by researchers at the Royal
Marsden.
