Americans are diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer every year, and every year nearly 50,000 die of it. Tonight dr. Jon lapook tells us about a new treatment that could prevent a lot of those deaths. Reporter in the fall of 2013, kate winnes cancer doctors gave her some very bad news. Its got tone that moint now why unless something comes along, its thats about it. Reporter at the time, wp was 52 and worn out from a sevenyear battle against colon cancer that include radiation nine surgeries and multiple rounds of chemo. Thats a pretty scary place to be. Reporter but dr. Luiz diaz and colleagues tried a new approach. The immune system often has a hard time telling the difference between a normal cell and cancer cell but a specific mutation present in about 15 to 20 of colon cancers causes the cells to become very different from normal. They theorize the cells would be much harder for the bodys immune system to find. Can we give one of these educations that turns on the immune system, and would that allow your immune system to attack your tumor and remove it or eliminate it. Reporter kate had that mutation and as part of a study of 38 patients with metastatic colon cancer who had failed conventional treatments. 13 had the genetic defect. 25 did not. All were given an immuneboosting drug called pembrolizumab. In 12 of the 15 with the genetic defect the cancer either stopped growing or shrank. In the 25 others you tumor continued to grow. You were seeing people who were really in an emergency situation in their life being returned to normal and thats a pretty incredible observation and feeling. Reporter kate has received the therapy every two weeks for a year and a half. Her tumors have almost completely vanished, and she hasnt felt this well in years. To have the blessing of being able to think down the road and say, gosh, you know, im i intend to be here for that, is really incredible. It is. Its my own miracle. Reporter several of the authors have a Patent Pending related to the research. If it holds up over time, this approach could be used to treat other cancers with the same muization and, charlie, help select the parties who might benefit the most from the treatment which can cost more than 100,000 a year.
