Curing Cancer: IT-101 Nanoparticle Drug for Cancer Treatment

Ten years ago, Mark Davis was a chemical engineer with a successful career-until his wife Mary was diagnosed with breast cancer. Mary described her treatments as so unbearable that "she wanted to die." She turned to Mark and said, "there's got to be a better way-you can fix this." Mark felt like saying, "But I don't know squat about cancer." Instead, he immersed himself in a new field.

And if it does, what are the implications for cancer treatment as we know it?
