As they learn more an more about the molecular biology of colon cancer they undoubtedly will have more and more effective treatments. But the most important thing will always be to detect it as early as possible, because surgery in that case will be the only treatment needed.

We have a cure for about 90% of all colon cancers now it’s colonoscopy. About 40% of the colon cancers I see are cured on colonoscopy. No surgery, no chemo, no radiation, nothing else. It cannot be diagnosed by a blood test.

1] cures run far behind detection rates - since cures are far more involved!! 2] colon cancer still #2 for cancer death rates, #3 for incidence 3] not by a bloodtest, no.
