Non-Small Cell Lung Cance
"I (78 y.o. male) was diagnosed with NSCLC in March 2011 and in late May I started taking Iressa as a first line of treatment. For the first five months my only side effect was a mild rash. I then had swollen gums and stomach acid.  Both quickly responded to antibiotics. 75 days between the March and May CT scans the tumor increased by 86% (from 4.9 x 4 cms).  50 days later in July, after taking Iressa, the CT scan revealed an 83% reduction.  From March to July it reduced by 69% and in December, although subtle, there has been further reduction."
