as much as i am for advancement in medicine, this drug is questionable.
first, how is saving cells with damaged DNA good? the body destroys these cells for a reason. in extreme cases i can see the long term effects trump the short, but it sound like we are just fighting cancer with cancer.
second, death by radiation is the most horrific way to die. you essentially drown in your own blood over a period of days to weeks. now i doubt that the animals being tested on were given such extreme doses, but how can scientific achievement be built on this overtly inhumane treatment of animals.

a civilization can not be built on oppression
