They presented them like this. So they said the annual rate of uterine cancer is 23 per 10,000 women taking tamoxifen compared to 9.1 per 10,000 in the placebo arm, so quite a long sentence. And these small figures, 23 per 10,000 and 9.1 per 10,000.
It seems pretty small, right? So maybe the increase in rates of uterine cancer is effectively negligible. This is what we're sort of led to believe by looking at these different ways of framing these two statistics.
from one uterus to another. So here's what the uterine horn of a fox looks like when they're pregnant, and you can see that they're carrying about 6 or 7 developing embryos.
So if you give the absolute risks, then we've already seen this for uterine cancer. The reason they didn't present the increase in cases of uterine cancer using the relative risk is because it looks really bad.
helps you not have hot flashes it helps you sleep. It can also grow the lining of the uterus and so if it gets thicker thicker thicker there is worry over years that leads to endometrial or uterine cancer. So endometrium is the lining of the uterus so here I can okay so this is a this is a vagina and then
And then when they presented potential side effects of this drug. So one of the side effects is actually a slight increase in uterine cancer. They presented them like this.
So if you give the absolute risks, then we've already seen this for uterine cancer. So there's an increase of about 14 cases per 10,000 of uterine cancer for people taking this drug.
a manufacturing platform for these protocells. We're working with people with 3D printing expertise to literally create a birthing platform through which our little protocells are released into a watery tank, into their uterine environment, and then we'd use 2D ink jet technology to actually then give them specific chemistries. And that way, we're going to actually be able to quantify and be much more specific about exactly how much chemistry is required in a particular droplet of a particular size in order to create a particular kind of outcome.
So a fair comparison would be to give maybe both as relative risks or both as absolute risks. So if you give the absolute risks, then we've already seen this for uterine cancer. Tamoxifen-- when you're taking tamoxifen, there are just 23 cases per 10,000.
I know we just saw the video, but can you give us a little bit of a background of what happened to you and-- Well, it took me two years and eight doctors to get a proper diagnosis of uterine cancer. I sort of slipped through the cracks, because I didn't fit the profile of who gets it, which is usually postmenopausal women or obese
So all those levers are activated, and what they do is they then engage all the levers at one of these sections. that mathematics, this excessive use of that part of the brain, would specifically damage women's wombs, and Lovelace did, in fact, die of uterine cancer.
