Duran Duran’s Andy Taylor Says New Cancer Drug Has Given Him Five More Years
Duran Duran’s Andy Taylor says he expects to live for another “five years” thanks to a new medication he’s using to treat his prostate cancer.
In an interview with BBC Breakfast, Taylor said a doctor reached out to him about the new treatment option after he revealed he was fighting stage four cancer last year (he’d been diagnosed several years prior). Taylor described the drug, Lutetium-177, as a “nuclear medicine” designed to specifically target cancer cells.
“It can’t see healthy cells,” said Taylor, who started treatment about six weeks ago.
