And the medication will cost a fortune

Sure, if you can afford to move. If not, you can also wear a mask outside your home. Many people do.

It’s a single arm phase 1 study with a handful of patients. It is fundamentally impossible (and irresponsible) to claim that this drug “extends… patients’ lives” on the basis of an uncontrolled study. There is a huge way to go before efficacy can be claimed.

>Biorecycling should definitely be cheaper since it's just using organisms to break the substance down into constituent compounds
I don't know what the preparations and costs for biorecycling is. How is it cheaper? What are the materials and processes and who is involved?

Unfortunately, that really depends on the cancer type, stage, and treatment history. Progression-free survival for 5 months is actually an improvement for some patient populations.

So, a medicine that keeps you alive, but only as long as you keep taking it?
