[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I keep thinking there has to be some treatment, some clinical trial to help here. I know 2 people with AML who made it. I'm hoping for her. [/quote] She unfortunately has the Inversion 3 mutation. An "inversion 3 AML" is a specific subtype of AML that has a poor prognosis and a low response rate to standard chemotherapy, making it one of the most difficult types of AML to treat. Cancer is tricky. People think of some types of cancers as “good” cancer but in reality there are lots of subtypes or gene mutations that can make it really hard to treat. [/quote] I'm a cancer researcher and constantly work to educate the people that believe in the conspiracy theories that pharma doesn't want to cure cancer. They can't comprehend that cancer is a collection of genetically diverse diseases within each type of cancer. [/quote]
