Imagine not having to rely on donor organs and avoiding the regimen of expensive anti-rejection drugs (which won’t be necessary for the stem cells will be harvested from the recipient) how it would be easier to prolong life and conquer sickness allowing us to grow perfect organs void of the defect corrected by genetics. This is the ultimate goal of these studies, to alleviate suffering and death for those millions of people who have cancer in its many forms and shapes.
