They have had the anti-angiogenisis cure for decades now. All you have to do to stop tumors from growing larger than a grain of sand is to prevent blood vessels from growing to feed it. Since the blood vessels growth is a normal biological function it is easy to stop. The tumors even do it themselves, once one big tumor is established, it releases chemicals that prevent the growth of other tumors, that is why often when the primary tumor is removed that many secondary tumors begin to rapidly grow.
WAIT- Don't jump the gun!!it is a huge leap from the laboratory to a usable product or methodology. You never know how long it takes, or if it will work in the real world at all. This certainly is progress, but you never know where it will lead, or how soon!
