. FINDS CANCER CAUSE AND NEW TREATMENT Canadian Physician Locates Gem and Reports Serum Has Cured Disease. HOSPITALS LAUD DISCOVERY ‘ 200 Cases Treated, Majority of Them Improved. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. June 9. —The North American says today in an article withheld from publication for fifteen months, “in the interest of science." that the cause of cajfcer has been discovered: also a treatment for it, which, thouprh still in experimental stape, "is producing remarkable re sults.” k The discoverer is Dr. T. J. Glover, a native of Toronto, Canada, who, the article says, has established scien tifically that the disease is due to a micro-organism, and who has located the germ and proved by the “conclu sive laboratory test known as the 'Kooh cycle,’ ” its part as the causa- tive factor. Dr. Glover has conducted his research work in New York city for four years. The anti-toxic serum developed by Dr. Glover, the article sayjt, apparent ly is effective only in the treatment of carcinoma, the commonest and most destructive form of cancer. Con tinuing, the North American says: Experimented With Monkeys. “Dr. Glover first succeeded in incul cating animals with the germ he had isolated in certified specimens of can cer from human beings, and with it reproduced the disease in monkeys and all immune animals. Then. I through Injection of the serum, he ar rested or modified its course, and later immunized scores of such ani mals against infection. “Within the last two years this serum has been tested on more than 200 cases of cancer confirmed by pathological. X-ray and clinical his tories and in every stag© of devel opment. from incipienoy to hope lessness. Nearly 100 of these have been treated in the National Stomach Hospital in Philadelphia, where the most complete tests have been made and the largest number of patients observed. "In a majority of these casee fav orable results have been secured and in some instances the subjects have been discharged as symptom free—a condition the layman would call cured. * Thirteen Years of Rrnearrh. "This discovery of the cancer germ leads logically to the hope that a method soon may be found for de termining the presence of the micro organism in the blood, thus making possible the detection of the disease in incipiency and its prevention. Dr. Glover already has made significant experiments along this line, with de cidedly encouraging results. "He first began his research work In this field soon after being gradu ated from the medical school of the University of Toronto in 1911, and was continuously employed in It until he came to New York. There one of his test cases attracted the at tention of a wealthy business man. who for three years has anonymously financed his laboratory work and the production of the serum. "The proaess of obtaining this serum is similar to that followed in the case of diphtheria anti-toxin, in ‘ that the horse is the medium. It has been carried on solely under Dr. Glover's personal supervision, even to such details as selection of the an imals and their inoculation and care, an operation covering a period of at least eighteen months. Hospitals Iteport Results. “Dr. Glover has distributed a limit ed amount of the serum to hospitals in various parts of the country to be tested under pledge of secrecy and without charge pending the official announcement. From these experi mental clinics have been received highly favorable reports of results which coincide with the results ob tained in Philadelphia, over a period of eighteen months, i “Associated in the work with Di. Glover are two Philadelphia physi cians. Dr. J. F. Donnelly and Dr. M. P. Warmuth. both members of the staff of the National Stomach Hospital, w here the first clinic was established late in 1922. To these doctors was assigned the work of determining , the value of the serum in practical use, the best method of administra tion and proper dosage.” The discovery is expected to be presented before a medical society within six weeks.
