OMG ! NICEFigure 2: Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of mice after tumor inoculation and treatment with radiation only or combined treatment of Rutherrin® and radiation treatment
These results demonstrate that animals treated with a combination of Rutherrin® and radiation therapy showed an increase in median survival from 26 to 35 days, versus radiation only. In scientific publications, mouse survival of 9 days has been equated to the equivalent of 1 year survival in humans, but more importantly, is that one animal treated with the x-ray activated Rutherrin® (which had a positive lung tumor verified by CT scan) demonstrated a complete response and is now considered cancer free.
