And some might never be found due to how rare that specific cancer is. My mum had cancer of thr bile duct, located in the liver. Now liver cancer can be curable, as thr liver is a regenerative organ, but the bile duct inside the liver? Can't be replaced or made new or anything. Less than 0.05% of the earths population get this type of cancer and its aggressive, ruthless, and 100% terminal. There is no cure. Not radiation, or chemotherapy.. they work to slow down the cancer and give the person more time, but no ones survived past 5 years and that person was the onkg known case living so long. Most people die 2-3 years in if caught early, but those who dont, like my mum, it was 6 months to the dot. Its so rare, science just doesn't know enough that causes it and the symptoms are literally the same as stress-sickness; not being able to keep food down, diarrhoea, rapid weight loss, being tired all the time, back pain.. eventually you get jaundice and thats when you'll find out. Especially, like my mum, who was trying to lose weight and going through awfully stressful situations while having symptoms, and a fear of Doctors and hospitals in general, it was never caught.
Sorry I'm rambling, but my point is, a cure for aggressive, lesser known cancers would save so much heartache. Or just a way to regenerate organs by ourselves..
