I'm optimistic too. For what percentage of people was that granulocyte safety trial effective for? If it could be re-administered repeatedly, wouldn't that just make the cancer a chronic condition rather than something resulting in death?

I managed to find the original study for you. It worked in all patients, although it was a small study. They do plan on re-administration. Treatment will involve getting an infusion every 4-5 days until the cancer is gone. They expect about 6-8 infusions in total. Keep in mind that this treatment results in immune memory of the cancer, so you won't need chronic management. Also, since posting this, I found another presentation from the company where they went into detail about the methodology of their organoid models. Those results were observed from direct killing only and with only one infusion.
