Suffering from stage 4 prostate cancer, Andy Taylor is now on the road to recovery thanks to a happy combination of circumstances. Last year, Simon Le Bon, singer of Duran Duran, revealed the state of health of his sidekick on the occasion of the group’s entry into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Some time later, an eminent oncologist contacted the guitarist directly to offer him a new kind of treatment with a good chance of curing him.
“The irony of history is that I missed the biggest night of my life and a week later I was in contact with an incredible countryman, Sir Chris Evans, who is the most fabulous of scientists , confided Andy Taylor during a passage on the set of the morning of the BBC. He sequenced my genes, looked at them, and then he said, “There’s a cure that might save you.” »
Five more years of life expectancy
“This treatment, which is a Lutetium-177 radioactive drug, is able to target cancer cells. It bypasses healthy cells, explained Andy Taylor. I had a first session six weeks ago and the next one is for next week. It kills my stage 4 cancer which has reached the bones. And more concretely, it gave me five more years of life expectancy. We can only wish the musician that this treatment will allow him a complete remission.
