Una terapia combinada contra el cáncer óseo infantil es eficaz en organismos vivos: si el tumor se trasplanta a larvas de pez y se trata con determinados fármacos, se reduce considerablemente o desaparece por completo. Sin embargo, aún pasará un tiempo antes de que pueda aplicarse en niños, afirman el Dr. Martin Distel y sus coautores. Los resultados se publicaron en la prestigiosa revista Cancer Letters.
