The immunological drugs turn the immune system against the cancer and this approach can cure cancers that are untreatable using other methods. It is still really early days, but the immunological drugs are able to take patients that are weeks from death, and for which everything else has failed, and cure them.
What we really need to know if why it does not work for everyone, but it provides a crack into which we can hammer a wedge.
However the question is around the use of the term for this specific drug right now.
In the field, immunological drugs have given investigators hope that we know that cancer is able to be cured and we now just have to figure out the best way to do it - in the past we really didn’t have an approach that had a chance of making cancer a curable disease. Sure there were some approaches that might work on some cancers or some approaches that would hold the cancer at bay for a time, but nothing that gave hope of general cure.
To put it more succinctly, terminal is no longer terminal.
