This new technology is quite exciting. I hope this new therapy can be adapted to other malignancies as suggested in the article.

Time will tell, and hopefully there will be no untoward long-term effects - those of us in the field are watching this very closely with guarded optimism.

Just from the article and the news I have seen, it seems a lot of folks have some high hopes. I hope this therapy lives up to expectations and beyond.
