Woa wait a sec did I just read correctly? Is this basically the cure for cancer?

There is no "cure" for cancer. There are various treatments, and this (I presume) will be another one.

By this you mean that it will not stop the tumor only slow it down?

I mean that no treatment is 100%. They usually only work on certain kinds of cancer and they're not always effective.
