Rebirth 08: Rise from copycat phones

Chapter 340: Anti-cancer drug makes a global sensation
In a hospital in a second-tier city, Zhong Tang walked out of the hospital gate and looked up at the blue sky and white clouds outside. The bright spring sunshine was a little dazzling and almost made him cry.

But he quickly lowered his head to avoid the glaring gaze.

Then he continued walking outside. When he arrived at the parking lot, he opened the second-hand car he had just bought last year. After getting in the car, he threw the white bag containing the film and report in his hand on the passenger seat.

Then he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes slightly!
A lot of things came to my mind!

Just now, the doctor told him very clearly that he was diagnosed with liver cancer.

But he was not surprised, nor did he feel panicked... because he had already been frightened when he found abnormalities during the physical examination a month ago.

Over the past month, he has been to several hospitals and underwent many tests. At first, the doctor told him that there were other possibilities and it might not necessarily be liver cancer.

But after each examination, the doctor would give him an expression of either regret or hesitation.

No one smiled at him... not even a faint smile!

Then tell him: It’s okay, you don’t have liver cancer!
And now, it has finally been confirmed.

But he doesn't drink, stay up late, or eat too much meat and fish. He just lives a normal life like an ordinary person. How could he get liver cancer?
He was confused at first and thought it might be a misdiagnosis, so he went to several hospitals for examinations.

At this point... he doesn't want to bother with it anymore.

Just let it be liver cancer!

It was mid-stage liver cancer, not advanced, but the doctor had told him…the location of the cancer was rather special and surgery was extremely risky.

Even if the doctor says that surgery can be combined with chemotherapy, as well as some imported anti-cancer drugs not covered by medical insurance, it is possible to extend life by a few years.

But Zhong Tang felt that this was not necessary.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to live, but the operation is extremely risky and costs a lot of money.

It is not advisable to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to try to get a few more years of life with a very small chance. Reason tells him that this is not a good idea.

If the success rate of the operation was higher, even if it was half, he would fight for it for himself!
But the probability is too small!
It is impossible for him to let his home, which he had finally fixed, fall into ruin, empty the family savings, and make his wife and children homeless just for the "tiny chance of living two or three more years".

He sat quietly in the car, with many things coming to his mind.

It's time to arrange your funeral!

The house my family bought last year still has a mortgage of several hundred thousand yuan, and the monthly payment is close to three thousand yuan.

I have two children. My eldest son is in elementary school. The public school doesn’t cost too much, but my youngest daughter is still in kindergarten. Kindergarten is very expensive, costing more than four thousand yuan per semester.

The daily expenses for two children are not small. The children are in the growing period, and it costs a lot of money just for the two children to drink milk powder, drink calcium supplements and various vitamins.

His wife works as an accountant in a small company. Although the work is not leisurely and she can pick up and drop off the children, her monthly salary is only 3,000 yuan.

After I die, it will be difficult to make ends meet relying on my wife's income, and a mortgage alone would be enough to crush her.

I can’t keep my current house. It’s too expensive and the monthly payment is too much of a burden.

I have to sell it and move to a smaller two-bedroom house.

The couple still has 70,000 to 80,000 yuan saved.

This car is a second-hand car he bought last year. After he bought the house last year, he discussed it with his wife for a long time and spent more than 30,000 yuan to buy it. He originally wanted to buy it to practice first and then buy a new car after a few years. There is no need to keep it now, after all, his wife doesn't have a driver's license and can't drive.

Even if I sell this car at a loss now, I should be able to sell it for more than 20,000 yuan.

Speaking of which, my wife likes this car very much, although it is only a second-hand one. But when I drove it back to my hometown during the Chinese New Year last year, I didn’t have to squeeze on the train with the whole family. I could go whenever I wanted, and it was also convenient for visiting relatives in my hometown.

That was the most comfortable year he and his wife spent after they got married.

That was also the happiest time for him.

After working for many years, he received a small promotion from a low-level employee to a team leader with a monthly salary of over ten thousand yuan.

The couple worked hard for seven or eight years, lived frugally, and saved enough money to buy a house and a car, and settled down in this big city. They smile whenever they think about it now.

such a pity!
Now this big house has to be sold. After paying off the bank loan with the money from buying the house, I should be able to get another 300,000 yuan, plus the current savings of 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, and the more than 20,000 yuan from selling the car.

See if you can exchange it for a cheaper small two-bedroom apartment with full payment.

You can't take out a loan, it's a time bomb. While I'm still alive, my wife and I can still hold on, but after I die, my wife will be crushed.

A small two-bedroom apartment is enough for my wife and two children.

After all, this is a big city and the overall educational resources are still good. If possible, Zhong Tang still hopes to let his children stay here as long as possible to grow up and receive education.

So, you still need a house, even if it's just a cheap small house.

Once the housing problem is solved and there is no mortgage, then my wife's income will be barely enough to support two children. It will be a little harder in the first few years, but when the children grow up and become sensible, things should get better.

Although my parents are getting older, they are only around 60 years old and still in good health. We don’t have any big expenses, and they can farm in the countryside and do odd jobs to save money for their retirement. So I don’t have to worry too much in the short term.

As for the future...by that time, my son should have grown up and be able to take care of me in my old age.

Zhong Tang was thinking about these things in the car, and more than an hour had passed unknowingly.

At this time, his phone rang. It was his wife calling, asking him when he would come back for dinner.

He had not told his wife about his illness in the past month. After all, the diagnosis had not yet been confirmed and he still had some fantasies in his mind, so he did not tell her.

Speaking it out loud will do no practical good except to scare the whole family.

But now, I'm afraid I have to tell it, after all, I have to tell my wife about the subsequent change of house.

Start the car, then drive into the traffic and head home.

Soon, the car arrived at the underground parking lot downstairs. He did not open the door and go upstairs immediately, but stayed in the car for more than ten minutes. Finally, he took a deep breath, picked up the case report form, got out of the car and went upstairs.

When I opened the door, I saw my wife cooking in the kitchen.

"I'm back. Please give me a hand. I made some soup. It's a bit heavy. I don't dare to carry it. I'm afraid it will drop!"

Zhong Tang said: "Okay!"

After briefly helping out, Zhong Tang walked to the door of his son's room and looked inside. His eldest son was lying on the table doing his homework. As a second-grade elementary school student, he had a very heavy academic burden and had endless homework to do every day.

Zhong Tang did not disturb him. He went to the door of his little daughter's room and took a look. His little daughter was working with building blocks, building a small castle, and was very focused.

Zhong Tang did not go in, but turned around and sat down in the living room.

After the family had finished dinner and the children returned to their room, Zhong Tang took the report and took his wife back to the room.

"I have something to tell you!"

After hearing what Zhong Tang said, his wife asked, "What's the matter? You sound so serious!"

But just a few minutes later, his wife couldn't help sobbing: "It's fine, fine... Is it a misdiagnosis? I heard that misdiagnosis often occurs in hospitals. Let's go to another hospital for examination!"

Zhong Tang said: "I have changed three hospitals for examination, and the results are consistent. This is the result of the examination at the Provincial First Hospital. It is not a misdiagnosis!"

Hugging her gently: "Don't worry, don't be afraid, don't worry, I will arrange everything!"

His wife raised her tearful face and looked at him: "I should have said this to you. Don't be afraid. I will take care of everything!"

"We will go to the hospital tomorrow and have surgery if necessary, chemotherapy if necessary, and medication if necessary. Let's work together to cure the disease!"

Zhong Tang said: "No need to go, I have already asked, the surgery can't be done, and other methods are useless!"

But his wife didn't believe him: "No, you have to go to the hospital with me tomorrow!"

That night, the couple stayed awake all night!

The next day, his wife took a leave of absence, sent the child to school, and took Zhong Tang to the hospital to see a doctor again.

Listening to his wife discussing the condition in detail with the doctor and discussing possible treatment options, Zhong Tang did not say much, but just stood quietly by the side.

But in the end, when his wife tried to have him hospitalized for active treatment and prepare for surgery, Zhong Tang pulled his wife out of the hospital.

"You've heard and seen it, there's no need for that, we have to think about the future!"

"Now that things are irreversible, what we need to do is to reduce future risks."

"And I don't want to die on the operating table, let alone die from post-operative complications, and then die in the ICU with tubes inserted into them!"

"As it is now, with conservative treatment, I might be able to live another year or two!"

After hearing this, the wife was like crazy: "No, I always listened to you before, now you have to listen to me, let's go to Beijing to find a better hospital and a better doctor, and the surgery will definitely be done."

"The doctor just said that the surgery is not without hope of success. There is hope if the surgery is done well and combined with chemotherapy and drug treatment!"

"Don't worry about the money. We still have money at home. If we sell the house, we can get at least 300,000 yuan. We have enough money to treat this disease!"

"We have to cure it even if we have to sell everything we have!"

"As long as we don't give up hope, there is still hope!"

His wife kept talking to him, but Zhong Tang remained unmoved. Finally, his wife squatted on the ground and cried.

Zhong Tang also squatted down and patted her back gently: "Calm down and be more rational!"

"I know your heart, and you know my intention, but it is God's will, and there is nothing I can do about it!"

The wife cried, tears still streaming from her eyes, she squatted down and looked up at him and said, "You always talk about rationality, rationality, rationality all your life, but life is not all rationality!"

"If we lose the money, we can still earn it again. We were able to save this money before, and we can do so in the future. Please don't give up, okay?"

"Otherwise, when the kids ask me where my dad is, how should I answer them?"

"I will ask myself in the future, where is my husband? How should I answer myself?"

Zhong Tang didn't continue talking. Didn't he want to? He wanted to... but he couldn't.

Since it doesn't work, then we have to accept the reality.

But reality can sometimes be so cruel!
----

In the end, Zhong Tang took his wife back home.

In the evening, after picking up the child from school, Zhong Tang played with the child for a while, while his wife was absent-mindedly cooking in the kitchen.

After playing with the children for a while and letting them go back to their rooms to do their homework while he played, Zhong Tang came to the kitchen and saw his wife crying again.

Without saying much, he just went up and hugged her gently!
In the next few days, his wife still did not give up and took Zhong Tang to several other hospitals. She asked her best friend to help look after the child on the weekend. Then she forced Zhong Tang to go to a large hospital in Guangzhou for examination.

However, the results are still not ideal.

The operation is extremely risky and there is a high probability that the patient will not be able to get off the operating table. Other treatments do not have any obvious effect.

After returning home with disappointment, Zhong Tang was in good condition, but his wife was like a lost soul. She would secretly feel miserable almost every night, and then cry behind his back, and then turn around to encourage him not to give up hope!

A few days later, Zhong Tang said, "I put our house up for sale, and I'm also looking for a cheap small two-bedroom apartment."

The wife looked at him without saying anything, just nodded.

The house must be sold, but his wife's opinion is to sell the house and use it to treat his illness...but he wants to take advantage of the money he still has and buy a cheap small two-bedroom apartment in full to ensure the future life of his wife and children.

Not long after he finished speaking, Zhong Tang's phone rang. Zhong Tang picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from the doctor at the Provincial First Hospital.

After he picked up the phone, he said a few words briefly, then showed a puzzled look: "Clinical trial of new drugs? Free?"

"Yes, it's a new type of anti-cancer drug. We are currently recruiting clinical volunteers. Our hospital is also a designated hospital for clinical trials. Your condition is more in line with the requirements for clinical volunteers. If you are interested, I can recommend you!"

"The medicine is free, and other free treatment measures will be provided, so you don't have to worry about the cost!"

Zhong Tang said: "Then I will go there tomorrow to find out the situation!"

At this time, his wife came over and asked: "What clinical trial?"

Zhong Tang said, "It was Doctor Wang from the Provincial First Hospital, the doctor we went to see before. He said that there is a new anti-cancer drug that is recruiting volunteers for clinical trials. My situation is more suitable, so he asked me if I want to go!"

When his wife heard this, she immediately said anxiously, "We will go, we will go tomorrow. Call the doctor back and tell him that we will definitely be there tomorrow. The free spot will be given to someone else."

"I have read a lot of information and joined many patient groups. The number of clinical trial spots for this kind of experimental drug is limited. Once you miss it, it will be gone."

She had taken her husband to many hospitals and had also consulted a lot of information on her own, but had not found any feasible solution. All hospitals and doctors told her that there was no hope.

Now, there was a straw of hope, and she wanted to grab it no matter how great the odds were.

Zhong Tang thought about it and nodded, then called the doctor again, expressing his clear willingness to participate in the clinical trial, asking the doctor to reserve a spot, and they would go to the hospital tomorrow.

At this moment, his wife's expression was filled with joy: "I knew there would always be a way out. There must be hope!"

----

The next day, the couple once again went to the hospital they had visited many times. Soon they saw the doctor and were then taken to a small conference room.

There were some other patients and their families in the small conference room.

After a few simple questions, I found out that they were all cancer patients, including liver cancer and other cancers, from early to late stages, and both men and women, young and old.

Most people have heavy expressions, but there is a glimmer of hope in the heaviness.

Although some staff distributed some basic information about this clinical trial...but the content of the introduction was extremely limited. It just said that a multinational biological company, Galaxy Pharmaceuticals, had developed a new anti-cancer drug, Xiluokeda.

Currently, the drug has been approved for phase I clinical trials in eight countries around the world, including China, India, the United States, the United Kingdom, France and other countries.

What they are participating in is the first batch of clinical trials in China.

Then it was introduced that the drug theoretically has good anti-cancer effects, and has certain therapeutic effects on common lung cancer and liver cancer, but clinical trials have not yet been conducted, so it also has certain unknown risks.

Zhong Tang and his wife read the brochure carefully again and again, trying to get more information.

However, there is no actual information in this kind of public brochure... They don't even know the real name of the drug, 'BDF103'.

However, BDF103 itself is not the name of a drug, but just a project code. Just like the ARF78 project, it is a project code with no practical significance.

In view of the public clinical trials and subsequent market sales of BDF103, Galaxy Life temporarily gave it the English name "Xylocta", which is used as the official product name worldwide, and the transliteration name is used in China.

Then the drug was fully handed over to Galaxy Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Galaxy Life, to conduct clinical trials and subsequent operations worldwide. The core business of Galaxy Life is still the research and development of anti-aging technology or drugs, and the anti-cancer drug business is just incidental... They didn't do any anti-cancer research in the first place, and the anti-cancer effect of the BDF103 project was purely accidental.

But now that it has been made, we can just continue with it. We can also develop other drugs and officially enter the medical market.

About half an hour later, staff began to call away the patients and their families one by one. After waiting for some time, Mr. and Mrs. Zhong Tang were also called away by the staff and taken to a small meeting room.
There was a doctor in the small conference room, as well as two other men and one woman. The two middle-aged men were wearing expensive-looking suits and had their hair neatly groomed. The slightly younger woman next to them was also dressed in a professional suit.

At this time, Dr. Wang took the initiative to introduce: "Mr. Zhong, Mrs. Zhong, these three are from Galaxy Pharmaceuticals. This time, their company's new product is going to undergo clinical trials."

"I have studied your case in detail, Mr. Zhong. All aspects of your case are more consistent with this clinical trial of a new drug. However, this is a clinical trial of a new drug after all, and there may be unknown risks, so you must also consider it carefully."

Zhong Tang said: "I know my physical condition very well. Some risks are worth taking!"

“So, we are willing to participate in this clinical trial!”

At this time, a middle-aged man nearby took out several documents: "You have just learned about the basic information of our new drug. Now these are the details. You can learn a little bit. Then these are some legal documents that you need to sign!"

Zhong Tang picked up the introduction information and read it in detail. This time the information was much more detailed, and even included some professional terms. However, Zhong Tang didn't know much about these. To be honest, he didn't quite understand them...

Legal documents stipulate certain obligations and responsibilities of both parties, including disclaimers, confidentiality clauses, etc.

The dense legal documents make people dizzy.

This made Zhong Tang, who had recently searched and learned about some related clinical trials, sigh inwardly. This is more stringent than some clinical trials rumored on the Internet. I don’t know if only multinational companies are like this and make it so complicated.

But is it worth the trouble? After Zhong Tang read it carefully and confirmed that it was free and he didn't have to pay for it himself, and there were no other messy terms, he felt relieved.

Anyway, he is dying soon, so as long as it is not too harsh and does not cause any worries or affect his family, he does not care.

Soon, he signed his name on a pile of legal documents, and then Zhong Tang's wife also signed her name as a family member.

Next, Zhong Tang was taken away by the doctor for a new round of comprehensive examinations, after which the doctor developed a targeted experimental drug treatment plan based on his condition.

In order to better observe and treat, Zhong Tang also needs to be hospitalized.

Arriving at the ward, Zhong Tang sighed. Originally, he had not planned to be hospitalized, but now that he had the opportunity for a clinical trial, and it didn't cost any money, he naturally would not give up easily.

After taking sick leave from the company, Zhong Tang began hospitalization for treatment.

But the simplicity of the treatment process made him somewhat suspicious!
I just take one pill every day. There is no chemotherapy, no other medicine, and no injections or intravenous drips. I just take a capsule pill brought by the doctor every day.

It was so simple that it made him wonder if he was here for hospitalization!
However, various tests are very frequent. We monitor his condition almost 24 hours a day, with urine tests every day, blood tests from time to time, and MRIs every few days.

It's not just him, the other dozen or so people who participated in the clinical trial with him were in the same situation.

Only ten days later, he felt nothing was wrong, but in the hospital office, Director Wang looked at his latest examination report, especially the MRI images, and was speechless for a long time.

He repeatedly compared Zhong Tang's examination reports before and after the clinical trial, and then swallowed his saliva: "How... is this possible?"

"How could such a huge improvement be achieved in just ten days?"

Afterwards, Director Wang began to look through the examination records of other test subjects, and became more and more surprised.

As a senior oncologist, he deals with various cancers every day and has seen many clinical trials of various anti-cancer drugs, but he has never seen an anti-cancer drug with such good effects.

The most important thing is that this new drug, Xiluokeda, has therapeutic effects on many types of cancer and does not show any obvious major side effects... This is simply unbelievable.

After thinking about it, he made some phone calls to his colleagues in other large hospitals. In addition to their hospital, several other hospitals also conducted this clinical trial, so he needed to find out more about the situation.

After a round of phone calls, he fell silent.

The situations of several familiar colleagues were similar to his, and Xiluokeda's anti-cancer effect was surprisingly good.

Among the earliest patients who underwent clinical trials, some with mild symptoms had even seen large numbers of cancer cells cleared and their condition improved significantly.

Some patients who needed surgery also saw significant improvement in their condition after taking the medicine and were ready for surgery. Through the dual treatment of surgery and medication, the effect was excellent.

If things continue like this, even a critically ill patient like Zhong Tang who cannot undergo surgery may be able to control his condition to a very good level within half a year, and may even recover completely within a year... As for whether the disease will relapse in the future, this is not yet known, but the fact that the situation has improved significantly is real.

Could it be that after all these years, a miracle anti-cancer drug is finally going to appear?
As a senior doctor, his experience and knowledge told him that this was not realistic... because it was completely beyond his understanding.

But the facts told him that this was true.

After carefully looking through various materials in the office, Doctor Wang thought for a moment, then picked up the phone: "Xiaotong, it's me, your Uncle Wang. Bring your mother to my hospital quickly."

"I have a clinical trial here. The new drug is very effective. Maybe it will be useful for your mother's illness too!"

"Don't worry, clinical trials are free, it's okay!"

Doctor Wang added, "The number of places is limited, so you should hurry up and come tomorrow!"

On the other end of the phone was a family member of one of his former patients, a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old… His father died in a car accident years earlier, and his mother was diagnosed with liver cancer last year. He could have undergone surgery to alleviate some of the symptoms, but due to family financial reasons, the surgery was delayed and he was forced to undergo conservative treatment… But conservative treatment is also very expensive, both chemotherapy and some imported drugs are extremely expensive.

Children aged 17 or 18 dropped out of school and rode electric bikes to deliver takeout every day to make money, but it is a drop in the bucket compared to the cost of treatment.

A month ago, the little boy, who had spent all his money and borrowed all the money he could, had no choice but to take his mother to be discharged from the hospital and go home.

He clearly remembered the despair in the eyes of the boy who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, the kind that wanted to cry but couldn't!
Even though he has seen many lives and deaths, Dr. Wang still can't help but think of that look from time to time.

So, he was the first person I thought of.

After hanging up the phone, Dr. Wang thought for a moment and made another call: "Hello, Mr. Li, I have a clinical trial of a new drug. The conditions of the first batch of patients who participated have improved a little, and the overall effect is very good."

"Your mother's condition is also more suitable for participating in this clinical trial."

"Yes, yes, don't worry, it's not a product of those small domestic pharmaceutical companies, but a new product of a multinational group. It has just been clinically tested in China and the results are very good!"

"Oh, you're welcome. This is what I should do."

"Okay, see you tomorrow. OK, I won't bother you anymore. You're busy!"

Then he thought about it again, looked through some case data, and made three more calls.

Then he put down the phone. Five places were enough. It would be difficult to arrange more places.

After all, the other party is not just any nobody, but a multinational company, and the review standards for various clinical trials are very strict.

Even the five places he had selected by phone earlier met the basic requirements.

It’s just… As the deputy director of the oncology department of a top hospital in the province, he has too many such patients on hand, and can easily pick out a large number of candidates who meet the conditions for clinical trials.

The next day, Dr. Wang first received Mr. Li and the family members of the other three patients, and then walked over to the nervous child and said, "Don't worry, this clinical trial doesn't cost any money. It's all free. Not only are the drugs free, but we will also provide free hospitalization, examinations, and treatment."

"Don't feel pressured. Cooperate with the review later. It should be able to pass the clinical trial review. Your uncle Wang still has some face!"

The little boy said: "Thank you, Uncle Wang, you have been very kind to me..."

As he was about to kneel down... Doctor Wang quickly stopped him: "A man's knees are made of gold, why are you kneeling? Get up!"

Soon, another group of patients passed the review, signed various clinical trial documents and started the clinical trial.

The same situation actually occurs in other hospitals conducting clinical trials and even in some other countries.

The treatment effect of the first batch of patients in the first phase of clinical trials exceeded the imagination of many doctors.

Doctors, as insiders, are naturally very aware of its value. Even if it is only the first phase of clinical trials, there is no question of safety and there are huge unknown risks.

However, many patients who participate in clinical trials are the type that are beyond help. Even if participating in clinical trials is ineffective, it will not have much impact... they will die anyway!

But if participating in the clinical trial is effective, it would be a huge surprise.

As the first phase of clinical trials were gradually launched, news that the BDF103 project, namely 'Xylocta', had good anti-cancer effects began to circulate in the industry.

Especially as the first batch of patients participating in the clinical trial gradually improved, and some patients with mild symptoms even met the conditions for discharge, this news has spread not only among doctors, but also to many cancer patients and their families.

Someone was discussing this in a group of patients.

"Have you heard that there is an experimental drug called Xiluokeda that is very effective?"

"I heard that the hospital here is conducting a clinical trial on this drug. Several people who were on the verge of death took this drug and survived."

"But I went to the hospital yesterday and asked, and they said that all the spots for the clinical trial were full!"

"Our local hospital doesn't have it. Which hospital has clinical trials for this drug? I want to take my dad to have a look too!"

Similar small-scale discussions are spreading rapidly, and many cancer patients or their families are asking around for information about this drug.

Some people cannot even find clinical trials and offer high prices in an attempt to buy the drug.

In a patient group, someone posted an advertisement: I am willing to pay millions to buy Xiluokeda or a place in a clinical trial. If you are interested, please contact me. I am not short of money!

Attached to the information is a screenshot of the bank balance!

However, it is naturally unreliable to purchase these with a large sum of money. In order to ensure legality and compliance and to save money, the first phase clinical trials conducted by Galaxy Life in China and some overseas countries are not only subject to very strict review, but also have limited places.

The subjects are screened strictly according to the medical conditions required for the clinical trial, and not all cancer patients who want to participate in the clinical trial will be approved.

As for purchasing drugs, that is even more unreliable. This drug is not sold to the public at all. The small amount of drugs currently available are prepared in the laboratory. Each pill has a unique number and is strictly controlled.

It didn't take long for the news to be noticed by some media.

At the beginning of the next month, a reporter from an American newspaper was the first to report the news about Xiluokeda.

"The miracle drug against cancer? Xiluokeda!"

"Recently, an anti-cancer drug has suddenly spread among cancer patients. Some patients even call it a miracle drug for cancer. It is 'Xylocta', a new anti-cancer drug developed by a multinational biopharmaceutical group 'Galaxy Pharmaceuticals'. It is currently undergoing phase I clinical trials in the United States and seven other countries around the world!"

"According to what the reporter has learned, Xiluokeda has shown miraculous effects in anti-cancer treatment, which far exceeds other traditional anti-cancer drugs and is applicable to a variety of cancers!"

At the same time, the reporter also reported on the company Galaxy Pharmaceuticals!
Of course, the Galaxy Pharmaceutical company reported by the reporter is only the Galaxy Pharmaceutical on the surface. The public information is that it is a pharmaceutical company registered in China. It has acquired some pharmaceutical companies in China, Europe, the United States, and India to produce some insignificant generic drugs.

At first glance, it looks very ordinary!
This is because the galactic life behind it has not been exposed!

Galaxy Pharmaceuticals, which was released for commercial operations, had already undergone various processing before it was officially unveiled. At least on the surface, it was like this and had nothing to do with Galaxy Life.

As for the secret Galaxy Life, it also has a bunch of messy subsidiaries, such as China Galaxy Life, India Galaxy Biological, France Eastern Pharmaceuticals, United States Kroda Biological, and more than a dozen branches in Africa... and these are just subsidiaries to cover up their tracks.

Its real core is actually some R&D centers and R&D bases in Africa... It doesn't even have any commercial operation organizations of its own, and everything is centered around R&D.

Finally, there is a company that no one outside has ever heard of, Galaxy Security.

Galaxy Security had long since separated from Galaxy Life and had completely become a private security company controlled by Xu Shenxue.

The outside world knows nothing about Galaxy Security, but the consortium circle is familiar with this security company.

In recent years, this security company has been fighting with security companies under the control of American consortiums around the world.

In the past two years, the two sides fought to the point of being like dogs' brains. Today you burned my base of operations, and tomorrow I will blow up your safe house. The fighting was extremely brutal!
The trouble once caused panic in the consortium circle, fearing that they would be affected.

Galaxy Security and the security companies under the control of the American consortium are very brutal and do not even consider the opinions of third parties when fighting.

Sometimes they make a big move and then just walk away, and the local consortium has to quietly clean up the mess for them, finding all kinds of excuses to cover up the news... They can't tell ordinary people that there was a gunfight between two groups of armed elements under the consortium next door to your house yesterday, and heavy weapons were used!
There is no need to let ordinary people know about some undercurrent things, as it will have a bad influence!
The world as a whole still needs to maintain "peace", even if it is only superficial peace!

Therefore, Galaxy Security has done so many "big things", but up to now, there is still no public news. At most, we can only know some fragmentary surface information: it is a security service company active in Africa, providing security services to some companies.

Any more and it would be impossible.

The true situation regarding the Galaxy Security is only circulated within a small group of top financial groups on Earth, and even ordinary wealthy people are not qualified to know this.

The same is true for galactic life!
Galaxy Pharmaceuticals, which has now been brought to the surface, is just a small part of this huge enterprise and is the kind that can be known by ordinary people.

Of course, the hidden galactic life actually overlaps with the Milky Way to a great extent, and some project research and office areas overlap.

It's just one light and one dark.

There are some situations about galactic life that everyone should know, and some that should not be known that cannot be known.

However, Galaxy Pharmaceuticals, which has only been exposed on the surface, quickly became famous because of its anti-cancer drug Xiluokeda.

Since the first official report, other media soon followed up with reports.

Soon, domestic media also quoted foreign news and reported on Galaxy Pharmaceuticals.

Within a few days, related hot searches appeared on a certain website.

"What do you think of the domestically produced 'miracle anti-cancer drug' Xiluokeda?"

There are various answers to the question. Some people in the industry, such as pharmaceutical companies and doctors, know some inside information and have provided some popular science information about this drug.

However, many people also doubt the actual efficacy of this drug, believing that it is all hype by unscrupulous pharmaceutical companies.

"It's also a miracle anti-cancer drug that can treat more than ten types of cancer. It works instantly. Haha, my cat is actually an alien cat!"

"Don't brag without thinking. There have been many clinical trials of various anti-cancer drugs abroad in recent years, but how many of them have been able to complete multiple phases of clinical trials and finally be approved for marketing?"

“Even if it is launched, the effect will be greatly reduced!”

"As for domestic pharmaceutical companies, I'm not trying to belittle them, but what else can they do besides making some generic drugs?"

"The research and development of a new drug costs tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars. With the strength of domestic pharmaceutical companies, haha, it's better to believe that I am Qin Shi Huang than to believe what they can produce!"

There are some family members of patients who participated in the clinical trials and left messages online saying that the effects are really good, but ordinary people just don’t believe it...or, they don’t really care whether it’s true or not, they just spray it first and say later.

After all, apart from cancer patients and their families, other ordinary people don’t pay much attention to anti-cancer drugs. At most, they just watch them as a curiosity.

Amidst the discussion, Galaxy Pharmaceuticals, which was caught in the middle of a public opinion storm, also officially released relevant news on its official website, disclosing relevant information about its original anti-cancer drug Xiluokeda, especially some information about the first phase of clinical trials.

"We have found that it is applicable to 16 types of cancer. We will continue to test and explore more indications in the future!"

"Ninety-eight percent of the patients who participated in the trial achieved remission."

"Eighty percent of the patients in the mild group have recovered after a one-month treatment, and the remaining 20 percent have shown significant improvement!"

"In the moderate group, 70% have been reduced to mild symptoms after a month of treatment, and another 30% have also improved significantly!"

“In the severe group, 50% of the patients showed significant improvement after one month of treatment!”

The data from the first phase of clinical trials that Galaxy Pharmaceuticals proactively disclosed immediately caused an uproar!

It directly shocked the world!
