Most of us have been touched by cancer in one way or another, but a new claim is giving hope for a cure. 

According to the Jerusalem Post, a team of Israeli scientists claim they will likely develop a cure for cancer in the next year. A new treatment called MuTaTo uses a combination of cancer-fighting peptides and a toxin that specifically kills cancer cells, and is being developed by Accelerated Evolution Biotechnologies under the leadership of CEO Dr. Ilan Morad, according to the report.

“We believe we will offer in a year’s time a complete cure for cancer,” Dan Aridor, chairman of the company’s board, said. “Our cancer cure will be effective from day one, will last a duration of a few weeks and will have no or minimal side-effects at a much lower cost than most other treatments on the market.”

The ultimate goal is for the treatment to eventually be personalized and form a specific cocktail of the drugs that will be administered to patients based on their type of cancer. 

Let’s hope and pray we might see a different world in a few years, thanks to science.
