Even though Tyler Trent has died, he is still helping to fight cancer.
Thursday morning, researchers at the Indiana University School of Medicine announced they have found a combination therapy that significantly slows tumor growth in models built from cells taken from Trent’s tumors.
The next step for the researchers will be trying to get a better understanding of how the tumors adapt to the treatments and optimizing the combination therapy.
Trent was a Purdue student and football superfan who died over a year ago from bone cancer.
