Joined: Oct 2016 Posts: 284 | I was just watching the news and Dana Farber has a new cancer drug that they are testing and it has shown very promising results in about 15% of lung cancers. They are going to start trying to see if it will work for head and neck cancers. The drug is Iressa, known generically as gefitinib. It just came out all over the news about an hour ago. Just thought I would share with you guys!
