"It took a brave editor to publish the report," says Halassy, highlighting the challenges and ethical considerations surrounding self-experimentation in the medical research community.
Halassy, a virologist, emphasized her confidence in trying oncolytic virotherapy due to her expertise in cultivating and purifying viruses in the lab.
OVT represents a cutting-edge approach to cancer treatment, using viruses to target tumor cells while also activating the immune response.
Despite the success of OVT in clinical trials for late-stage cancers, Halassy's self-treatment marks a controversial leap into unproven territory for earlier-stage breast cancer.
