A growing amount of evi- dence shows some people are more sensitive to certain car- cinogens in the environment than. others, and’ that some areas show- a higher concen- tration of certain carcinogens than others. If the people and the areas can be identified, the subsequent increase in the number of human cancers that can he prevented would free Reported This is the basis for an on- going world-wide research pro- gram in which a team of Vancouver scientists headed by Dr. Hans. Stich is’ playing a prominent part. Working out of the Cancer Research Centre at the University of B.C., where Dr. Stich is a member of the department of medical gene- tics, the team is making a valuable contribution to the search for a cure for cancer.

"This defeatist attitude is not'surprising, considering that the classical rodent tests for carcinogens needed about 200 mice or rats, took between two and three years to complete, and cost anywhere between $100,000 and $150,000—just to test one compound. Now a short term test can be com- pleted within a ‘few days, hundreds of tests can be run simultaneously, and the cost is between $100 and $500 per compound.” Dr. Stich said human cells cultured in ‘the laboratory ap- pear to be the most promising test subjects which should pro- _ vide highly relevant results. Cells from normal, non- afflicted people can be tested in conjunction with cells from people or whole families with varying cancer risks, to evalu- ate the hazards of exposure to carcinogens in the.environment and to carcinogens formed within man, he said.
