Wu Huaide, an expert in traditional Chinese medicine, said tactfully, "Mr. Lu, many unapproved drugs have certain drawbacks. Mr. Xue's body functions are already at a very low level. If we test the drug in vain, it may lead to serious consequences! "
The two foreign experts also agreed with his point of view. Brewer said, "We have been working on a new treatment plan these days. I don't think we should let him use this new drug at this time."
Benoit said, "Can you let me see the information of this drug? I mean, the kind that can be announced. "
Lu Zixin knew that it was difficult to persuade them, so he said, "I can show you part of the information. This drug is the best treatment I think at present."
The experts were skeptical as they read the drug information Lu Zixin gave them.
"Huh? Targeted treatment? " Wu Huaide was surprised. He saw some information in the brief information and immediately felt a sense of agreement.
For cancer treatment, targeted treatment at the cellular and molecular level had always been favored by the medical community. This method was much less harmful to the patient's body than radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Moreover, if the target of cancer cells could be identified, the precise combination of drug molecules could make cancer cells die specifically, and the disease could be suppressed.
However, there were only a few targeted treatment drugs in the world, and they were all for special diseases.
As for targeted treatment drugs for lung cancer, Wu Huaide had never heard of any research institutions or medical organizations publishing related information. This time, after a brief look, he found that it was true.
"Have they found a specific drug molecule that can block the formation of cancer cells?" Brewer asked.
Lu Zixin nodded and said, "This is the drug."
"Really?" Brewer opened his eyes wide and read the information again. He said, "Is this possible? They can find a drug molecule that blocks the formation of cancer cells! No, I want to know the detailed composition! "
His first instinct was to not believe it. There were many such things in the medical community. Every time a team announced that they found a drug or method that was effective for a disease, 98% of the time, the drug was eliminated in the clinical trial stage.
The reaction of the drug in the body was far from a few inferences and formulas.
"I can't tell you the detailed composition." Lu Zixin certainly would not tell him the detailed composition. This was an important medical secret.
According to a report published by the Tufts Drug Development Research Center in America, the average cost of developing a new drug was 2.56 billion USD! One could only imagine the value of a new drug! Moreover, it was a special targeting drug for cancer cells!
"I'm sorry, I was too presumptuous. But without knowing the detailed cost, I can't be sure of the practicality of this drug, "Brewer said.
"Dr. Brewer is right." Benoit said, "I've read through the information, and it was indeed done by an institution with high standards in cancer research. However, Mr. Xue is in the late stage of cancer, and the failure rate of trying new drugs is more than ten times higher than the early stage of cancer! It can be said that the death rate is very high. "
The director of the hospital, Yue Sibo, nodded and said, "Our hospital cannot make such a decision alone. The patient, the patient's family, and the attending physician must agree. "
"Alright." Lu Zixin knew that they could not be sure, so he said, "I will explain to the patient and the patient's family first."
Lu Zixin first told this to Xue Yao. Xue Yao was also very confused. After thinking about it, she said, "How about this, I will ask for my father's opinion. If he agrees, we will use it. If he doesn't agree, then forget it. "
Lu Zixin nodded, showing that he respected her opinion. When they told Xue Bai about this, Xue Bai was very straightforward. He said that he did not have much time left anyway, so he might as well contribute to medical research.
After that, Lu Zixin discussed with Xue Yao, who signed the relevant agreement with them, before they started to test the new drug.
Actually, the few experts did not have high hopes for the new drug. They all said goodbye to Lu Zixin, saying that they would return to their respective places to continue their work.
"Mr. Lu, we will keep an eye on Mr. Xue's condition. We will do our best to alleviate his condition. "Brewer sat on the plane, returning to America.
"You can call me if you have any questions." Wu Huaide left his personal phone number.
It was the same for Benoit. The three world-class medical experts all returned, which showed their confidence in the new drug.
Only patients would blindly believe in new medicines, and they knew that in order to become a special medicine for a specific disease, they had to go through countless failures before they could succeed.
In the end, Xue Bai was probably just one of the failed cases.
The attending doctor, Zeng Hong, was also under a lot of pressure. When Xue Bai took the drug for the first time, he would get the nurse to check on the patient's condition every half an hour.
Xue Yao was also worried. She was afraid that Xue Bai would have a rejection reaction, so she stayed by the bed.
To their surprise, Xue Bai didn't show any abnormalities after taking the medicine for ten hours.
On the second day, Xue Bai's appetite had slightly increased compared to yesterday. On the third day, it was slightly better than yesterday.
"Looking at the patient's current condition, there's a temporary relief, and there's no further deterioration. But we still need to observe for two more weeks. "Zeng Hong reported Xue Bai's situation to the department director.
"Hmm? Is this drug really effective? "Mo Xiajin was also surprised and instructed," Deal with it immediately if there's any change. "
"No matter how effective the treatment is, we can't ignore it!"
"Yes, I've been keeping an eye on it." Zeng Hong naturally knew the importance of this. After all, the patient's background was not simple. If the patient's condition worsened, the hospital would be under a lot of pressure.
At the same time, if the patient's condition improved, it would be even more significant! People died in the hospital every day, but if there was a drug that could treat terminal illnesses, it would definitely shake the world!
Just like him, Lu Zixin was also following up on Xue Bai's treatment. A week later, Xue Bai's condition improved. His appetite increased, and he could even move his body.
Facing this situation, the doctors were shocked and carried out another round of examination.
In the consultation room, the department director and attending doctor were waiting anxiously. They were even more nervous than the patients. This was not just a simple treatment, but also a new attempt in medicine.
"The report is out!" The nurse walked in with the examination results, and the two of them immediately looked at it.
When they saw the data, the two of them could not help but shout, "The number of cancer cells has decreased! The condition has been suppressed! "
