This article is about an experimental drug that treats lung cancer. This drug's name is Crizotinib it has been proven to be very effective on patients with lung cancer. Doctors tested 82 patients with lung cancer, that had tumors in their lungs. 46 of the pateints taking the drug, their tumors have shrunk more than 30 percent within 6 months of taking it. Doctors are also hoping that the drug will be effective on different caners such as: breast, colon, and sarcoma cancer.

I think this new drug is a wonderful discovery! So many people develop a type of cancer everyday, and if this drug can help knock out the cancer then people would have a hope of living. I hope that this new drug will be a new step for the fight against cancer, maybe even the cure. With this new drug, people with types of cancer may not have to go through that much pain anymore. I am in agreement with this new drug all the way!
