要通過癌症藥物臨床研究，其中的一道標準就是藥物有高度效率殺滅癌細胞。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRFS46twE5

追求高效率無可厚非，但以這個例子中，101個病人中，只有1人見效，是否真的代表要放棄這藥呢?472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8geIZKv6J

（圖2）在一次Phase2臨床研究中，Everolimus藥物未能在大部份病人中見得到成效，唯獨在一名病人中出現奇效。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjhr3S5tGo

圖中紅箭嘴所指的位置為腫瘤所在地。用藥6個月後，腫瘤完全消失，情況一直持續至2年半有多。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx0GvGuPDy
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5GnZeiqyU
這個情況下，又是否應該放棄這藥物，就這樣以奇蹟二字來解釋此事作罷呢?472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQynFdEeMzm

（圖3）有科學家死心不惜(Ref1)，致力研究那名病人為何會對此藥作出如此正面的效果。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxx5O2LqYx

最後確認原因是那名病人同時在兩道基因NF2及TSC1出現變異，引致該藥物的機制更能有效針對癌細胞。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoj6WjKT0T
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3BFEICIyl
那場臨床研究主要是針對膀胱癌病人，而膀胱癌同時會出現這兩種基因變異的機率非常之低，因此研究結果非常參差。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgypTOqSrz
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9OhMaXqMk
但是，倘若將來有其他癌症病人同時擁有這兩道基因變異呢?472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCUUYu8xP3
如果此藥物能有效應付出現這兩道變異基因的癌症，那麼藥物是否還是值得推出市場呢？472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKpEE67XVm
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOotc8Qhxq
無論如何，此藥最後在2012及2018年被FDA認可，可用作醫療與TSC基因變異有關的症狀。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvLAKUfpZb
那份科學家死心不惜的研究是否有作出相關功勞，並沒有真接證據可顯示得到。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi516AZL8bI
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjuziAH7e9
但這份研究明顯地帶出了一道訊息，就算新藥沒能對大部份的病人見效，亦是值得擺放努力剖析為何會對小部份人見效，分分中可能會有意外的收獲，增進開放藥物的新方向。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ND2hRfXEh
