I couldn't open the link but googled the drug name and found another article. Sounds really exciting!

Yes much progress! I can’t open your link either but it is probably the same thing. Why is it so difficult to paste a link that works on this platform. What I do is copy the link the I want to paste then click URL then paste the link after URL and click URL again (so basically the link lies between URL and URL . Is this correct?

Yes that's correct. I think it must be a bug on healingwell as I've not had this problem before

It is done only for few patients in early stage of rectum cancer. There is no much studies yet.
