"Uncle Xu, will I really get better?"

May 25, 2024, Department of Oncology, Jingzhou First Hospital, Jingzhou City.

In the clean and sunny independent ward, Xu Yun listened to the words of the round-faced girl on the hospital bed in front of him, and a warm and gentle smile appeared on his face, and he nodded and spit out two words.

"Of course."

It's short, but it gives people a sense of security.

The girl's name is Feng Wanqin, who has just turned eighteen years old this year and is in the most brilliant stage of her life.

But God played a joke with her.

Not long ago, due to physical discomfort, an examination was carried out, and it was found that Feng Wanqin unfortunately suffered from pancreatic cancer, which is known as the king of cancer, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to herself and her family.

Pancreatic cancer can be called the king of cancer in the academic community, and it makes sense that it has a very high mortality rate in addition to being extremely difficult to treat.

According to popular parlance, suffering from this disease is equivalent to a death sentence.

If other cancers can be affected by a series of treatments to prolong the life cycle of patients as much as possible, then pancreatic cancer seems to have to wait for death.

So much so that many people eventually voluntarily give up treatment.

Unwilling to drag down the family.

No one thought that such a terrible illness would find Feng Wanqin, who was still so young.

This is undoubtedly a pause button on her life.

I don't know when it's going to end.

Fortunately, Feng Wanqin's parents are determined enough to treat their daughter, and the conditions at home are not too bad.

In a way, this is a blessing in disguise.

It's just that they finally mustered up the courage to go to the city hospital for treatment, and they were poured cold water on the hospital again.

Feng Wanqin's situation is more complicated, if the duodenum is removed by surgical treatment, it will involve multiple organs in the body, both during and after the operation, which is very dangerous, and even if she survives, the body will become weak due to organ damage.

In this desperate situation, they unexpectedly learned that human trials were being conducted in the nearby city of Jingzhou, and the participating patients had good treatment results.

So as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he was transferred to the First Hospital of Jingzhou overnight.

According to the regulations of the Deepin Science and Technology Biological Research Laboratory, the scope of human trials is limited to Jingzhou City.

It is not open to other cities for the time being.

But after Xu Yun saw Feng Wanqin's case from Lin Yi, he immediately became interested.

It is believed that pancreatic cancer can better detect the efficacy of new chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy developed by laboratories, and it is also important to collect and analyze relevant data.

Moreover, the age of the patient is only 18 years old, which is a relatively rare case.

This proposal naturally received the support of Ding Wei, Zhou Lihua and others, and the preparations were completed on the same day, and the blood samples in Feng Wanqin's body were successfully taken.

At first, Feng Wanqin's parents were planning to hide from their daughter, not wanting her to know that she had pancreatic cancer.

I just want to replace it with other milder diseases.

Save your daughter from thinking nonsense.

Affect treatment.

Anyway, they had agreed to the treatment plan of the bioscience laboratory, and they did not need to take the risk of surgery.

But after all, they underestimated the daughter they had cultivated, Feng Wanqin not only knew about her condition, but also performed far better than many elderly patients.

Face it calmly and not be afraid of death.

If I have to say that the only regret is that I have not been able to spend enough time with my parents.

It is also worth mentioning that after Feng Wanqin learned that she participated in the project of the national idol Xu Yun, she was very happy, and seemed to forget that the patient was herself.

He said that he wanted to film his treatment process and make a personal documentary when the time came.

Xu Yun did not refuse.

In fact, according to the relevant regulations of human trials, even if Feng Wanqin does not record it herself, the experiment will make a detailed record of each patient's treatment and data.

After all, these are the keys to future technical approval and listing.

After these days of human experiments, the laboratory has become more proficient in the process of modifying and expanding the purified cells of patients than at the beginning.

As a result, the intermediate process takes less time.

It took only about four or five days to grow enough expanded cells.

Today is the day of the injection for Feng Wanqin, and whether the other party can control the condition and recover her health in the follow-up depends on the changes in her body data in the next few days.

In the face of this special case, Xu Yun naturally didn't feel at ease about handing it over to others, so he deliberately made this trip.

Especially after a few contacts, he also likes each other's personalities very much.

After getting acquainted, he changed his title from the original Academician Xu to Uncle Xu.

"This therapy is different from surgery, and there are no adverse reactions to the patient, so you don't have to worry too much, just treat it as a regular injection and hang the bottle." Lin Yi, the deputy chief doctor who followed Xu Yun, thought that Feng Wanqin was worried when she saw that she was going to be injected, and immediately explained it in a deep voice.

After hearing this, Feng Wanqin stared at Shui Lingling's big eyes and asked curiously, "Then will I lose my hair?" ”

Although she has never been exposed to cancer in her previous life, she has watched many documentaries about it, and the most vivid one of them is the hair that fell out of her hair due to side effects after receiving treatment.

This is definitely a scary thing for a girl.

When Lin Yi heard Feng Wanqin ask this question, he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart.

But the next second is still patiently answered.

"Don't worry."

"Your hair is definitely not going to fall out."

"As I said earlier, unlike surgical chemoradiotherapy, this treatment has no side effects for patients."

"In addition, we have treated a lot of cancer patients before and after."

"The technology is already very mature."

Even Xu Yun echoed Lin Yi after saying these words: "What Dr. Lin said is right, you just need to believe us." ”

"I believe in you, Uncle Xu." A smile appeared on Feng Wanqin's face.

Feng Wanqin's parents next to the hospital bed were controlling their emotions at the moment and saying words of encouragement to their daughter.

"You can definitely Qinqin, when you get well, our family will travel to other places."

"Don't think about anything, everything will be fine in a few days."

Feng Wanqin is not a child, so she naturally doesn't want too many people to worry about her at this time, so she doesn't say anything more immediately, and faces this special injection with a resolute look.

That's it.

In the following time, the results of several days in the laboratory were injected into Feng Wanqin's body.

Waiting to make a huge difference.

After Xu Yun and Lin Yi came out, they didn't forget to explain to each other.

"Feng Wanqin is asking Dr. Lin to pay more attention to it, especially to observe the changes in the other party's body on time, we need these data."

"Don't worry, Academician Xu, I'll arrange it." Lin Yi hurriedly expressed his position when he heard this.

The whole process was very respectful.

During this time, as more and more cancer patients walked out of the hospital, he couldn't help but feel proud and proud, and he felt like he had really found a doctor.

And he knew that all this was all up to Xu Yun.

In fact, he also knows that pancreatic cancer is different from other cancers, even if Xu Yun doesn't specifically tell him, he will be more concerned.

After all, if the new chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy can cure pancreatic cancer, which is known as the king of cancer, it will not just cause a sensation in the global medical community, and basically mark the complete sounding of the clarion call for mankind to counterattack cancer.

Cancer has been raging in human civilization for so long that it is not known how many lives are taken every year.

And humanity has paid countless costs and still cannot avoid it.

Now that we can finally see hope, it is self-evident what this means for human civilization.

For Lin Yi Xu Yun, he must be relieved, and with this guarantee, he basically doesn't have to worry too much about Feng Wanqin's situation.

The next most important thing to consider is how effective the injected injections will be.

Since the new chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy officially began human trials, this is the first time it has been used in pancreatic cancer patients, and he is not 100% sure about it.

What's more, Feng Wanqin's condition is still relatively serious, and she can't even perform surgery.

It can be said that this is her last chance.

From the bottom of his heart, he must be hoping to completely cure Feng Wanqin, but the specific situation still depends on the changes in his body.

He used brain overclocking to optimize chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy, but it was not possible to completely solve all cancers and make patients completely cured, and the results of each patient's individual physical condition are likely to be different.

To this extent, it is already a miracle in the history of medicine.

Just as Xu Yun was thinking about this, a familiar figure suddenly burst into his field of vision.

And quickly approached him.

Raising his gaze to take a closer look, he stopped after discovering that it was Wang Dong, the laboratory assistant.

After the other party stopped a few dozen centimeters in front of him, Xu Yun took the initiative to ask:

"How did you get here?"

"Still in such a hurry?"

noticed that Wang Dongzheng was panting heavily, and his words were mixed with a lot of questions.

Wang Dong hurriedly ran over for Xu Yun, and he would definitely not sell anything in the face of inquiries at this moment.

After calming down a little, he answered truthfully.

"Xu Yuan."

"Director Liu of the Pharmaceutical Bureau is here, and I have something important to talk to you about."

"Ding Yuan asked you to go back as soon as possible."

"Director Liu?" Xu Yun whispered to himself when he heard the name.

After quickly retrieving the memories in his mind, he confirmed that he had nothing to do with this Director Liu.

I don't know what the medical bureau is looking for at this time.

However, I soon thought that he had now set foot in the pharmaceutical industry and did not stay at the Academy of Sciences to study quantum computers, and my heart was immediately relieved.

Regardless of the other party's purpose, since they are here, they must meet.

Moreover, when the follow-up new chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy is approved and marketed, I am afraid that it will be indispensable to deal with each other.

The thought stayed here, and he immediately said in a deep voice: "I'll go back now." ”

After speaking, he turned around and looked at Lin Yi again: "Then Feng Wanqin will be handed over to you." After speaking, he led the team to leave with Wang Dong.

Lin Yi assured Xu Yun's back.

"Xu Yuan can rest assured."

……

After leaving from the First Hospital of Jingzhou, Xu Yun and Wang Dong and others returned to the biological research laboratory of Longhu Science and Technology Park not long after, and they also saw Ding Wei, Zhou Lihua and a strange figure in the lounge for the first time.

Seeing Xu Yun coming back, Ding Wei took the lead in getting up and took the initiative to introduce.

"This is Director Liu Xuezhi of the Pharmaceutical Bureau, and he came here specifically for our chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy."

"Academician Xu, I finally saw you." Liu Xuezhi didn't wait for Xu Yun to speak, then stepped forward and stretched out his hands.

There was excitement and excitement on his face.

This time, he came to Jingzhou City from the imperial capital with a mission, and he still had a lot of pressure in his heart.

After all, Ruihui Biotech has completely broken with the other party, and if the technology of the Deepin Technology Biological Research Laboratory does not meet the requirements, then it needs to find a suitable anti-cancer drug again.

When the time comes, not to mention the trouble, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction and protests from the cancer patient community.

Who made the price of Ruihui Biotech expensive, the effect does have.

Firmly positioned as a global leader.

After coming to this biological laboratory in Jingzhou City, although he did not meet Xu Yun immediately, he chatted a lot with Ding Wei and Zhou Lihua, and learned more about chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy.

It is basically certain that in the director's office that day, the words of Li Houlin, president of the Academy of Engineering, were indeed not false.

It's even relatively conservative.

Especially when he saw the cases of patients who had been cured, he was even more excited.

I knew I was in the right place this time.

With this kind of domestic technology that can effectively cure cancer, who would be stupid enough to continue to buy high-priced imported anti-cancer drugs.

Xu Yun didn't think it was strange when he heard that Liu Xuezhi came for a new chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy, after all, there had been media reports some time ago.

It's just that most netizens are skeptical.

"Hello Director Liu."

Stretched out his hand and shook the other party to say hello, and then sat down again in the words of Ding Wei and Zhou Lihua.

Finally meeting the most genius young scientist in human history, Liu Xuezhi first organized the language a little, and then directly went straight to the point to express his intention and follow-up thoughts.

In his position, he sometimes comes into contact with scientific researchers, so he knows a lot about some situations.

For researchers, the most precious thing is undoubtedly time.

Having this time to listen to some nonsense is far less valuable than doing research and experiments.

That's why Liu Xuezhi decided to only talk about dry goods.

Try not to delay Xu Yun's time.

"This time, I actually heard about the progress of your laboratory's new project from Dean Li of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and saw if we could provide some help to promote such a good cancer treatment across the country as soon as possible."

"The sooner you go online, the more cancer patients you can treat."

Listening to Liu Xuezhi's words in his ears, Xu Yun couldn't help but feel a slight movement in his heart, but someone came to deliver a pillow just when he was sleepy.

With the spread of the name of new chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy in the cancer community, it is unknown how many people want to be eligible to participate in human trials every day, which is almost beyond the reach of biological research laboratories.

If this goes on for a long time, it is not a good phenomenon, and it may lead to more serious consequences.

For example, some cancer patients directly give up the original conventional treatment in order to participate in human trials, and if they cannot be injected in a short time, their condition will definitely deteriorate further and threaten their lives.

Originally, Xu Yun was still thinking about how to promote the therapy so that all cancer patients could have the opportunity to be treated.

Now that Liu Xuezhi has suddenly arrived, it can be said that he has just solved this troublesome matter.

If we can cooperate with the pharmaceutical bureau to add the new chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy to the medical insurance, the follow-up treatment will undoubtedly be much easier and more convenient.

It can also further reduce the pressure on patients' treatment costs.

The thought stayed here, Xu Yun no longer hesitated, took over the conversation and said his thoughts.

And a little worry in my heart.

"Bringing this therapy online to treat more cancer patients is naturally the desire of our lab."

"However, the human trial phase is not yet over."

Liu Xuezhi naturally knew what Xu Yun was worried about, but he was full of confidence in Xu Yun.

Especially when I learned that this new type of therapy was Xu Yun's masterpiece, and it was not long before entering a new field.

"There is no need to worry about this situation, just now Academician Ding has shown me the test situation during this period of time, and I think it fully meets the requirements for formal approval and launch."

"In fact, the bureau had previously planned to concentrate on the purchase of Ruihui Biotech's new anti-cancer drug rolagnib, but it could not be reached because of the price."

"If it weren't for the fact that Dean Li happened to learn about the research results of the Xu Academy, it would definitely cause a lot of confusion."

Xu Yun really didn't expect that the above had already planned to purchase anti-cancer drugs, and it seems that the treatment of cancer patients has indeed reached the point of urgency.

Having said this, Xu Yun naturally won't look ahead.

What's more, he is also confident in his new therapy.

It's just that he didn't directly give Liu Xuezhi a positive answer, but first raised his eyes and set his eyes on Ding Wei and Zhou Lihua to win the opinions of the two of them.

"What do you think of this?"

"I think our technology is very mature and can end human trials early." In the face of inquiry, Ding Wei was the first to answer, and supported Xu Yun's decision.

And seeing that Xu Yun and Ding Wei both said so, Zhou Lihua naturally had no objections at this time.

And they are all waiting for this day to come.

"I'm okay with that."

Barely hesitated.

Confirming the attitudes of Ding Wei and Zhou Lihua, Xu Yun no longer hesitated, turned his gaze to Liu Xuezhi and said: "We agreed to launch a new chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy in advance and cooperate with the promotion. ”

"That's great."

Finally hearing the answer he wanted, Liu Xuezhi first breathed a sigh of relief, and then fell into great joy.

It can only be said that compared with the negotiation with the representatives of Ruihui, it was too smooth to come to Jingzhou City.

Then he calmed down a little and asked Xu Yun again: "I don't know how much this therapy costs?" ”

"If we ensure the research cost and normal operation of the laboratory, each patient can complete the treatment for about 120,000 yuan." Xu Yun replied without thinking about this familiar question.

But this sentence instantly made Liu Xuezhi's eyes widen, and the whole person was deeply shocked.

He is well aware of the value of this new type of therapy, and there will be no shortage of patients even if it is priced in millions or even millions.

After all, this anti-cancer drug is different, and it basically does not require multiple treatments.

But Xu Yun only set the cost at this price, obviously not planning to use this technology to make money at all.

I have to say that it is such an academician who can really devote his mind to project research.

He has dealt with many companies, including some academicians.

But it is difficult for anyone to achieve Xu Yun's level.

After all, the benefits are unimaginable.

However, now that Deepin Technology has mastered the global solid-state battery and new energy vehicle market, coupled with powerful intelligent driving and artificial intelligence technology, I don't know how much profit it brings to the company, so there is really no need to take money too seriously.

All he wants to do is to study all kinds of unknown technologies and enjoy the spiritual satisfaction of exploring and harvesting.

"Then I will arrange this matter as soon as I go back, and strive to come up with a detailed plan as soon as possible."

"This time, we will let Ruihui have a good look at our achievements in cancer treatment."

Maybe the stimulation he got from Xu Yun was too great, and Liu Xuezhi couldn't bear it at all.

I immediately wanted to return to the imperial capital to do this.

Just mentioning Ruihui, he remembered another situation, hesitated a little or stopped for the time being and threw out a question.

"Academician Xu."

"I wonder if this treatment in your laboratory has any effect on pancreatic cancer, the king of cancer?"

He knows that Ruihui's new drug Rolagoni is effective for pancreatic cancer, and Ruihui also deliberately uses this to promote this.

Since it is to completely defeat Ruihui, it must be crushed in all directions without dead ends.

Hearing Liu Xuezhi coincidentally ask this question, Xu Yun smiled and said.

"Director Liu may not know that today we just treated a pancreatic cancer patient who was only 18 years old."

"There will be a new inspection report in a few days, Director Liu might as well stay and see for himself."

Compared with the simple words on the tongue, it is naturally more shocking to witness with your own eyes.

Hearing Xu Yun say this, he had the idea of staying for a few more days first.

After all, a more comprehensive and profound understanding of this new therapy can be better promoted.

With his thinking running quickly, Liu Xuezhi quickly made a decision.

"Since Xu Yuan is warmly invited, then I will stay and witness the final result together."

"Regarding the approval of the launch, let my assistant go back to the imperial capital first."

That's right.

He agreed to Xu Yun's invitation.

Anyway, such a big project still has to be in charge of the director in the end, and it is enough to let the assistant go back and tell him to start preparations, and he really does not need to return to the imperial capital in person.

Everyone is familiar with a lot of things here, and they even had a meal together at noon.

It's just that the assistant doesn't have this blessing, and he needs to return to the imperial capital to report the situation to Chen Xiangying first.

Time passed minute by minute, and Liu Xuezhi stayed in the laboratory for most of the next few days, which can be regarded as a deeper understanding of the power of the new chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy.

And just when the new technology was in full swing and ready to be launched, Feng Wanqin finally received a new examination in the Oncology Department of the First Hospital of Jingzhou City.

It didn't take long to know the specific situation from the inspection report, so Xu Yun also specially brought Liu Xuezhi there.

While everyone was waiting for the results, they couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, hoping that there would be a good surprise in the future.
