Not sure what drug you're talking about. Generally, though, reports about brain tumor treatments in the mainstream media are grossly oversimplified and full of factual errors. And they always tend to leave the impression that some great advance new advance has been made, whether it's actually true or not.

Oh, dichloralacetate? I talked to our neuro-oncologist about the study done at the University of Alberta. He said the researchers' actual connection to the University of Alberta appeared to be rather tenuous.
