B.C. researchers find cancer-killing 'decoy' Using molecule shrinks tumours in advanced-stage prostate cancer VANCOUVER -01/02/07- When Dr. Marianne Sadar made a career decision 12 years ago to "go after cancer," her greatest hope was that one day she'd make a breakthrough in the fight against the dreaded disease. Yesterday, in her laboratory at the British Columbia Cancer Agency, Dr. Sadar explained how a research team she led has done just that -- coming up with a way to kill prostate cancer cells by using a "decoy molecule" that interrupts a key step in cancer growth. The research could soon lead to the creation of a drug to treat patients at advanced stages of prostate cancer where no effective therapy is now available....... http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/...CANCER01/TPStory/National
