After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 235 Qingshan Pharmaceutical is so awesome!

Perhaps because leukemia contains the word "white blood", and coupled with the lack of popular medical knowledge in previous years, many Chinese people believe that leukemia is a disease in which the blood turns white.

Therefore, over the years, leukemia has been extremely "famous" in the hearts of countless Chinese people, and the level of fear has even surpassed that of cancer, becoming a real dread disease.

Therefore, when Qingshan Pharmaceutical developed a drug that can treat leukemia, it quickly attracted the attention of countless netizens, and corresponding topics of discussion immediately appeared on social platforms such as Weibo and Zhihu.

"Oh my god? Leukemia?! Qingshan Pharmaceutical has developed a drug that can treat leukemia?!"

"Hiss! Is this true?! Leukemia is a terminal illness! Qingshan Pharmaceutical has conquered another terminal illness?! Too good to be true!"

"Is it true? It must be true! This is the news released on the official website of Qingshan Pharmaceutical! But your last sentence is right, it is really amazing! Leukemia has been conquered by Qingshan Pharmaceutical!"

"Ahem, the person above, although I am also a die-hard fan of Qingshan Pharmaceutical, I can't say that they have conquered leukemia. Qingshan Pharmaceutical announced that it can treat leukemia, which should be able to control it rather than cure it!"

"Control? Like controlling diabetes and high blood pressure? Even so, it's very strong!"

"That's what it should be!"

"Oh, I see. I still have another question. In the movie 'Dying to Survive', wasn't there a drug called 'Gleevec' that could cure leukemia? What's the difference?"

"Yeah, now that you mention it I remember it now. What's the difference?"

"The difference is huge! Novartis' Gleevec can only treat 'chronic myeloid leukemia', while Qingshan Pharmaceutical's 'ibactuzumab' is for treating acute leukemia!"

"There are many ways to treat chronic myeloid leukemia, and the disease progresses very slowly. Most importantly, chronic leukemia only accounts for 15% to 20% of leukemia!"

"Acute leukemia is completely different. Currently, there is no treatment except bone marrow stem cell transplantation, and the mortality rate is extremely high!"

“The most important thing is!”

"Acute myeloid leukemia accounts for the highest proportion of leukemia, up to 60%!!"

"Fuck, 60%! That's so high!"

"Hiss, so it means that the previous Gleevec could only treat 15-20% of leukemia patients, but after Qingshan Pharmaceutical's drug is launched on the market, it can treat 60% of patients?!"

"Yes, that's right! Although there is no distinction between high and low medicines, this is the fact!"

"Hey~ Awesome! If this drug can be successfully marketed, it will have limitless functions!"

"Qingshan Pharmaceutical is so awesome! Why do I suddenly feel an inexplicable sense of security?!"

The news that Tsingshan Pharmaceutical developed "Ibetuzumab" quickly became a hot topic due to enthusiastic discussions among netizens and became the hottest topic on the Internet.

Countless medical science bloggers have also begun to educate netizens about the differences between "acute leukemia" and "chronic leukemia". The more in-depth the interpretation, the more netizens discover the awesomeness of Qingshan Pharmaceutical!
In addition to netizens, the news was also reposted by major portals such as Baidu, NetEase, and Tencent, and pushed to the mobile phones of countless citizens through APP...

……

Shanghai, Children's Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University.

This is the best and top-ranked hospital in the country for treating childhood leukemia.

Xiao Zhang is 35 years old this year. When he was 28 years old, he welcomed his first child and became a real father.

He personally named his son Zhang Le, and his nickname was Lele.

Lele's birth made this already happy family even more full of laughter and joy. Grandpa and grandma, everyone loved the child and loved this little treasure in the family.

Xiao Zhang originally thought that such a happy life would continue until three years ago, when his son was 5 years old. After a persistent high fever, his beloved son Lele was diagnosed with "acute myeloid leukemia."

leukemia?
When the hospital issued the diagnosis, he couldn't even believe his ears. Why did he have leukemia when he was fine?

He can't believe it!
But from the best children's hospitals and cancer hospitals in the city to the province, all the results were the same -

Diagnosed with "acute myeloid leukemia".

Faced with the ironclad facts, he had no choice but to accept them.

In the following days, he began to take his son for chemotherapy, once, twice, three times... In the end, he couldn't remember how many times.

The hospital where he was treated changed from the original municipal hospital to the Provincial Children's Hospital and the best Fudan Children's Hospital in the country...

But after countless treatments, Lele's condition became worse and worse.

Long-term chemotherapy caused Lele's whole body to swell, and he even felt so much pain at night that he had to take painkillers to fall asleep.

The most troublesome thing is...

Now Lele has developed a strong resistance to chemotherapy drugs, and chemotherapy can no longer control the leukemia cancer cells in his body.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhang's eyes dimmed completely.

Three years ago, when Lele was first diagnosed, he naively thought that he could control his disease by taking Gleevec.

Later I learned that Gleevec is only effective for treating "chronic myeloid leukemia", and all types of leukemia in children are acute leukemia, and there is no chronic leukemia at all!
In other words, if chemotherapy is no longer effective, then...

You can only wait for death!

"Oh my God, how can you be so cruel and blind!"

Xiao Zhang was screaming in pain in his heart, and at this moment, the voice of his son Lele suddenly came to his ears.

"Dad, did the little fat boy reply to the message?"

A familiar voice interrupted Xiao Zhang's thoughts. He hurriedly looked at his son who was lying on the hospital bed, dying, with various monitoring devices inserted into his body.

But soon, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

The "little fat boy" my son mentioned was another child with leukemia they met in the hospital a year ago.

The two were of similar age and had been hospitalized together for more than three months, so they became very good friends.

After this hospitalization, Lele thought of Xiaopangdun again and wanted to video chat with him to ask about his condition.

only……

He just asked the little fat boy’s mother...The little fat boy was admitted to the hospital again three months ago and eventually died due to ineffective treatment!

He didn't dare to tell Lele, so he had to endure the pain and smiled:
"Le Le, I just contacted the little fat boy's mother. She said that the little fat boy is doing well and has returned to school!"

"Le Le, you have to be strong and keep going. Mom and Dad are looking forward to seeing you get better and go back to school!"

When Lele heard the news that his friend was getting better, a light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

He forced a smile on his swollen face and said dimly:
"That's good!"

"Dad, let me tell you, the last time he was in the hospital, the fat kid told me he was going to die."

"What do you think it feels like to die? Will people turn into ghosts?

Also, Dad, I've been feeling worse and worse these past few nights. Am I going to die too?"

Xiao Zhang was startled and felt extremely distressed, not knowing how to answer.

Fortunately, Lele didn't want to get an answer. As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly revealed a deep attachment, and then he said:
"Dad, I suddenly miss my classmates and teachers so much."

"I still remember my deskmate Fang Yuchen borrowed a pencil from me and never returned it to me. I haven't seen him for a long, long time!"

"Dad, when do you think I can go back to school? I really want to go to school with my classmates!" Xiao Zhang felt heartbroken and bleeding!

The age of seven or eight is the best time of children’s childhood.

Countless children are happily enjoying their best childhood, but Lele can only stay in the ward!
Waiting for death!

"Lele, take your medicine carefully. It won't be long before we can go home and see your classmates at school!"

"Well, Dad, I will be obedient and take the medicine obediently."

Lele nodded:
"But Dad, why are you crying?"

Xiao Zhang couldn't bear it any longer and covered his face with his hands. At this moment, the cell phone on the bedside table suddenly rang loudly.

"Dad, is this the little fat boy calling?"

"No, it's your mother's phone call."

Xiao Zhang picked up the phone quickly, but before he could say anything, Lele's mother's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Hubby, hurry up, check WeChat!"

"I just forwarded a WeChat message to you. It's news that just came out. It's news that just came out!"

"Qingshan Pharmaceutical, Qingshan Pharmaceutical! It's the best and largest pharmaceutical company in our country. They have announced that they have developed a drug that can treat acute leukemia!"

"Our son is saved!"

Xiao Zhang was stunned and quickly hung up the phone, his heart trembling uncontrollably.

With trembling hands, he opened WeChat and Weibo. When he saw the official news released by Qingshan Pharmaceutical, saw that 'Ibetuzumab' can treat acute leukemia, and saw that the drug is recruiting subjects, he could no longer hold back!

"Lele!"

"Come on, Dad will take you out of the hospital and take you to a new place!"

"There, your illness will definitely be cured!"

……

Cases like Lele's are not uncommon. While netizens were still expressing their admiration for Qingshan Pharmaceutical's development of a drug to treat leukemia, real leukemia patients had already begun to take action.

Netizens cannot empathize with the situation. At this moment, only they can truly and deeply feel the hope brought by Qingshan Pharmaceutical.

Hope of life.

That afternoon, the first batch of leukemia patients from all over the country poured into Chengdu Third People's Hospital.

Registration hall.

"Hello, I need to make an appointment with the hematology department. Does anyone have an appointment with Director Hu?"

"I don't have an appointment with Director Hu. Director Hu is not seeing patients today."

"Then I'll make an appointment with another doctor."

"All other doctors' appointments are sold out. All the appointments for the hematology department this afternoon have been taken!"

"Ah? Comrade, can you help us add a number? We are from the neighboring city of Shancheng. We saw the news this morning and rushed over by bus. We want to participate in the clinical trial of Qingshan Pharmaceutical!"

As he spoke, the patient who was registering at the window picked up his five-year-old child and begged in tears:

"Please be kind and help me add a number! Look, my daughter is only five years old this year, and she is so well behaved!"

"We came here because we had no other choice. Please!"

The staff at the window couldn't help but take a look at the little girl with a shaved head, and sighed helplessly in his heart.

"Sister, it's not that I don't want to add a number, it's that I've already added several numbers and can't add any more."

"Let me give you an idea. You can go directly to the outpatient clinic or clinical trial center and register directly!"

"Okay, okay, thank you!"

……

The outpatient registration hall is like this. As more and more leukemia patients come after hearing the news, the hematology outpatient department and clinical trial center are even more overcrowded.

Countless patients crowded in the outpatient department and the clinical trial center. When the staff appeared, countless patients became agitated and began to beg desperately.

"Doctor, please, give me a spot. My son is dying and chemotherapy has no effect on him!"

"Doctor, please be kind and don't ask for compensation. Just give us the medicine!"

"Yes, doctor, just give us this medicine. We will bear any problems ourselves and will never blame you!"

"Doctor, please look at my daughter. Her disease has spread. If you don't save her, she will be beyond help!"

"doctor……"

Director Hu had already anticipated such a situation, so even though he was not seeing patients today, he rushed to the outpatient department to help after finishing his work in the inpatient department.

But even though he was mentally prepared and even though he was used to separations of life and death, he was still quite shocked when he saw countless families of leukemia patients bringing their sons, daughters, wives, and husbands to beg for a spot!
These patients and their families may be respected figures in their respective units and in their lives, but at this moment, in order to keep themselves and their loved ones alive, they beg for mercy without even caring about their reputation.

Is it wrong to live in order to survive?

That's right!

"Don't worry, queue up to register. Anyone who meets our requirements will participate in the double-blind clinical trial."

"For patients with special and serious conditions, we will also treat them appropriately and use medication directly!"

"Do not worry."

"Thank you, thank you Director Hu!"

……

the other side.

Just as Tsingshan Pharmaceutical released the news about "Ibetuzumab", which sparked discussion across the entire network and brought hope to countless leukemia patients, a discussion meeting was taking place within Tsingshan Pharmaceutical.

There were two topics for the discussion. The first topic was that "Ibetuzumab" is an injectable preparation, so there is naturally no problem using it in hospitals.

However, if it is to be used for a long time, the injection method is not so convenient for long-term use.

Wei Tian presided over this meeting and said with a light cough:

"Although our 'Ibetuzumab' has just started clinical trials, I think it is necessary for us to develop oral tablets based on the 'Ibetuzumab' injection formulation, just like 'Gleevec', so that patients can take it for a long time, which is more convenient."

"What do you think?"
