New cancer drug gives Jade Goody ‘glimmer of hope’

London, Feb 05 (ANI): Cancer-stricken Jade Goody is being given a new drug to help combat her spreading illness.

The 27-year-old said she was starting a two-month course of Topotecan after her first round of chemotherapy failed to stop the cervical cancer spreading to her liver, bowel and groin.

"I've had an awful time recently but I got some hope today," the Mirror quoted Goody, as saying.

"It's the first good news I've had in a dreadful few weeks. Over the last three or four days my view has been, `How long have I got?' Now I'm thinking, `Maybe there's a chance'," she added.

However, some experts doubt the drug's chances of success and grimly warn she may have as little as 12 months to live.

Goody, 27, underwent more tests during the weekend amid concerns that secondary tumours might have developed in her kidneys, liver and bowel, and was readmitted to the Royal Marsden Hospital in London three days ago after collapsing at home.

Worried doctors, who have treated Jade since her diagnosis of cervical cancer last August, now fear the disease may have moved through her bloodstream to attack the other areas.
