"I disagree that there aren't any cures for cancer. If chemotherapy results in the person being free of cancer, is that not a cure?"
Doctors never use the word "cure" when describing any kind of cancer. When the cancer becomes undetectable, the word "remission" is used. This is because the cancer could come back at any time. This article is terrible, you really need to research how receptors and cancer works. There is not just one receptor responsible for the development of cancer. If there were, we would all be taking pills that blocked that receptor. I really feel sorry for you if you think this is good.
