Can a Combination of Drugs Help Cure Mesothelioma?

At Worthington & Caron, we know that patients diagnosed with mesothelioma are facing the most difficult times of their lives. They may have countless questions regarding what their medical and legal options are. While many people are wary of possible treatment, there are new advances in research that may be pushing towards a cure for mesothelioma.

In recent tests, researchers are attempting to combine two drugs that can help the body’s immune system. A drug called durvalumab is being used in conjunction with another medication called tremelimumab. Durvalumab works to target a protein in the tumor while tremelimumab works to boost the body’s immune system to help fight against the cancer.

Based on the tests thus far, there is an encouraging rate of results that the combination of the drugs can work to help mesothelioma patients.
