Ancient Greek physician and father of medicine Hippocrates stated:
Give me the power to create a fever and I shall cure any disease". More
than two thousand years later, modern scientists are trying to prove his
theory true.
Common viruses are becoming the latest cure against cancer with a
small Australian biotechology group one of the forefronters in this
field.
Ancient Greeks made the observation initially, however, there have
been a couple of cases of cancer patients entering spontaneous remission
after being exposed to common viruses. An eight-year-old cancer patient
in Uganda was exposed to the measles virus and within a few weeks, his
tumour had regressed.
But only recently have doctors researched into the growing area known
as oncolytic virotherapy.
Could the common cold be the 'Holy Grail' of cancer treatment?
Clinical trials have began looking at this new method of treating
cancer.
