New drug could lead to a 'new era of treatment'

It has the potential to reduce the risk of heart attacks by 15 percent and cut deaths caused by cancer by at least half. During a four-year trial, the drug was administered once every three months to around 10-thousand patients. But cardiology consultant at Britain's Cambridge University, Doctor James Rudd, says we shouldn't get carried away.
