It was established by trial attorneys who combine experience and success with a thorough knowledge of the disease and challenges involved in trying complex cases.
Tratamiento de terapia genética de vanguardia
Aunque aún está en su infancia, la terapia génica es un nuevo tratamiento que accede al código genético que predispone a las células a volverse cancerosas cuando se exponen al asbesto y a aquellas resistentes al cáncer. Actualmente se está demostrando que las suposiciones de que los genes están completos al nacer son erróneas. Fumar y ciertos alimentos afectan el ADN y cambian el código genético.
La terapia génica se presenta en dos formas:
- La terapia genética knockout ayuda a combatir el mesotelioma atacando los genes propensos a desarrollar tumores e impidiendo su formación.
- La terapia génica de reemplazo reemplaza un gen dañado o faltante por un gen normal que regula el crecimiento y la división celular y suprime el crecimiento tumoral.
La terapia génica del mesotelioma no es completamente segura y existen riesgos. Sin embargo, la corta esperanza de vida que sigue a un diagnóstico de mesotelioma motiva a las víctimas a participar en este proceso aún experimental.
At Brayton Purcell LLP, we encourage our clients to explore all options in the treatment of a deadly disease. While they pursue proven or experimental medical care, we handle all aspects of their cases. Regardless of the outcome of gene therapy or other alternative therapies, negligent parties must be held accountable for life-changing and life-ending asbestos exposure.
