Chinese scientists have developed a new medical method for the treatment of cancer. These experiments in China show that the treatment of cancer in the future can not only be cheaper, but can also be more effective. It is being said that if this treatment was successful on a large scale. Therefore, this will not be less than a boon for cancer patients. Because the treatment of cancer will cost only 11 thousand rupees. China is developing a new medicine.

What is oncolitic virus therapy?

Cancer is a fatal disease. The treatment of which is still expensive and long. But now a deadly disease like cancer will be treated for only 11 thousand rupees. Chinese scientists have developed a new technology. This is called 'oncolitic virus therapy'. This technique not only has the ability to eliminate dangerous cancer tumors but also activates the body's immune system. Oncolitic virus can be seen as a hidden killer. Scientists have developed these viruses in such a way that they enter cancer cells directly. Their number increases there and eventually cancer cells are destroyed. Additionally, this virus can also release protein that help the body's immune system destroy the remaining cancer cells.

Only a few countries have this technology.

This technique is not new. Research on oncolitic virus began about 100 years ago, but genetic engineering has greatly improved their effectiveness in recent years. So far this technology has been adopted in many countries around the world including the US and Japan. But China is moving fast in this direction. About 60 clinical tests are underway. This hopes that this treatment will be accessible and cheaper to the common people.

Miraculous results were observed from this treatment.

A study published in January this year told the story of a 58 -year -old woman. Those who had uterine cancer and whose traditional treatment failed. He was given oncolitic virus therapy and as a result his metastatic tumor disappeared. Surprisingly, the woman lived for 36 months after this treatment. The research was conducted under the leadership of Professor Jhao Yongjiang of Guangshi Medical University, Southern China. Scientists used a virus that makes cancer cells like boar tissue. Due to which the body's immune system destroyed them as foreign substances. This small test included 90% of patients who had liver, ovarian and lung cancer. This saw a decrease or stability in the size of the tumor.

Treatment for only 11 thousand rupees

The biggest advantage of oncolitic virus therapy is its low cost. The cost of CAR-T therapy used so far in the treatment of cancer is about Rs. China is Rs 1.16 crore per dose. In comparison, an injection of oncolitic virus therapy can be available for only 11 thousand rupees. The total cost of one year of this therapy can be up to Rs 3.3 lakh. Which is much less expensive than current cancer remedies.
