So if prostate cancer has metastasized, and we target the cancer, do we do so at the hazard of exposing the healthy prostate cells to the same fate?
Do the cells of other cancer-prone organs produce similarly specific antigens?
If so, how do we avoid the situation where we eliminate (for instance) melanoma tumors of the brain and lungs only to have the patient's skin kill itself off completely?
