Many researchers have tried for many years to find a drug for cancer, but I believe no one has succeeded. They treat only early-stage cancer patients who are surviving, but many patients who are not diagnosed in the early stages are not surviving. I hope this is useful for all patients at all stages. Thank you, God and researchers.

There is no "drug for cancer". Cancer is a term for thousands of different variations of gene expressions that lead to things like cancer.

Cancer will be beaten with a "scientific cookbook" rather than some wonderpill.

Stopping the metastatic surge cancer cells undergo, forming new tumor micro-environments (TME, angiogenesis), are probably the main areas research should focus on to radically boost long-term survival. We need to move cancer from a fatal condition to a chronic condition.

We're sloooowly getting there with antibody drug conjugates like pembrolizumab (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pembrolizumab), but what truly causes metastatic spread (epithelial–mesenchymal transition) is still a mystery!

I know of at least one patient for stage 4 metastatic melanoma who's been in complete remission for several months on a cocktail of two different immunotherapies. Neither "stage 4" nor "metastatic" suggest early stages.

So stop trying, or what is your point?
