Reversing Malignancy

 

 

Prof. Leo Sachs was the first to show that cancer cells – in tissue cultures and in living organisms – can be made to revert to normal behavior.

 

 

Sachs' studies on reversing malignancy led to the development of a new treatment, differentiation therapy. This approach is now being used clinically in human promyelocytic leukemia and is being tested in other types of cancer.
