    The new gene therapy is aimed at cancer patients and uses a filter-toxic DNA molecule called a plasmid. A plasmid is an extra-chromosomal genetic material that can encode and control the release of growth hormone (GHRH for short). This plasmid can stimulate the synthesis of endogenous growth hormone and another growth substance, insulin growth factor-1 (IFG-1).
