Cancer debate: Are tumors fueled by stem cells?‎‎‎
How can a cancer come back after it's apparently been eradicated?

contain their own pool of stem cells that can multiply and keep
fueling the cancer, seeding regrowth.

FDA Approves Zaltrap For Metastatic Colorectal Cancer‎‎‎
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Friday approved Zaltrap, a drug

Inc. (REGN) to treat advanced colon cancer.
Specifically, the agency approved Zaltrap for use in combination with
a chemotherapy regimen called Folfiri in patients whose cancer has
spread beyond the colon. The approval is also for so-called second
line therapy for use in patients previously treated with an
oxaliplatin-based regimen.
