...Alexander Fefer, a University of Washington researcher who has pioneered in the development of T cells that target malignancies. Perhaps the most significant question is whether human TIL cells will exhibit the same homing instincts as their counterparts in mice. If so, TIL immunotherapy could be ideal for catching stray cancer cells missed by surgery and destroying them before they can seed other tumors. Also, Fefer wonders, can sufficient numbers of TIL cells be produced to vanquish human tumors? Although only clinical trials will provide the answers, Fefer admits he is "optimistic about this (Rosenberg's) approach or an approach...

Instead of flowing down through the cervix and vagina, some menstrual blood and tissue back up through the Fallopian tubes and spill out into the pelvic cavity (see chart). Normally this errant flow is harmlessly absorbed, but in some cases the stray tissue may implant itself outside the uterus and continue to grow. A second theory suggests that the disease arises from misplaced embryonic cells that have lain scattered around the abdominal cavity since birth. When the monthly hormonal cycles begin at puberty, says Dr. Howard Judd, director of gynecological endocrinology...
