"Better article on U of A DCA trial"
 
   Most objective article I've yet seen on the DCA trial at UA:

"Promising brain cancer drug moves to human trials"

   Did this trial ever report its results? I looked at U of Alberta site, no mention of it and doesn't show up in internet searches either. Was it abandoned?

The trial has been going on for 2 years. It was only supposed to be for 6 months, because glioblastoma patients usually don't live more than that. First draft of the paper has been sent for approval. See more information here:

I have no further updates at this time.
