Oh I agree,
The drugs definitely are getting better. For example, in China they have patented the world's first commercial gene therapy for cancer. They are using adenoviruses to target cells that specifically lack p53 to try and restore the gene function to allow apoptosis of the cancer cells, thereby destroying the tumour. And it is self limiting: the virus doesn't attack normal cells because they express transient levels of p53. Kinda neat really.
I mean it only works in specific forms, but it's pretty good!
