In Australia, scientists have been working to develop new treatments for victims of mesothelioma. One of the treatment is proving successful in laboratory studies, which involves the use of treatment for skin cancer bat. During several tests conducted on laboratory mice with advanced tumors of mesothelioma, a cancer skin cream called Imiquimod was combined with an anticancer drug, antiCD40.
