The Spin

Narrative A

Given the drug's success so far and its emergence from the tragic death of a little girl, this story is nothing but inspirational. AOH1996, in conjunction with existing therapies, has the potential to revolutionize cancer treatment and clear a path toward non-toxic treatments for patients suffering from this horrible disease.

Narrative B

While news of groundbreaking cancer treatments is always welcome, a one size fits all miracle drug is very unlikely. This is because the various cancer cells out there mutate and adapt in the body — just as animals have done through evolution. For example, due to the unique DNA structure of Melanoma, treatments for that disease must be vastly different than for lung cancer.
