　　Saif Azar, a 14-year-old video game fan, said a new title called "Re-Mission" helped arm him with the knowledge of how to fight cancer after he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2003.

　　"It was perfect, actually. It helped me understand the things that were going on in my body," said Azar, who started playing the game as part of a clinical study and continues playing today as he wraps up his treatments.

　　Roxxi, the main character in "Re-Mission," is a gutsy, fully-armed "Nanobot" who seeks out and destroys cancer cells throughout the body.

　　HopeLab, the game's maker, said the results from its scientific study involving 375 teen and young adults at 34 medical centers in the United States, Canada and Australia showed that young people who played "Re-Mission" were more likely to stick to their medication regimens than those who did not.

　　Palo Alto, California-base HopeLab is a nonprofit organization that helps young people deal with chronic illnesses. It was founded in 2001 by board chair Pamela Omidyar, wife of eBay Inc. founder and Chairman Pierre Omidyar.

　　The results showed that the game helped players feel empowered to confront the challenge posed by their illness, which made them more likely to take their medicine -- and more likely to get better, said HopeLab President Pat Christen.

　　"We approached the study in the same way and with the same rigor that we would with a new drug," she said.

　　HopeLab targeted teens and young adults because their health outcomes tend not to be as good as younger and older groups, she said.

　　"There is an assumption that they're doing what they're supposed to be doing and they're not monitored as closely," Christen said.

　　The PC game is immediately available, free of charge, to teens and young people diagnosed with cancer. It will be widely available on May 1 for a suggested donation of $20.

　　当初是作为一项临床研究的一部分，塞弗-阿扎才开始玩这款游戏的;目前他已结束治疗，但仍然对这款游戏爱不释手。

　　游戏主角勇敢击退癌瘤

　　这款电脑游戏中的主要角色名为Roxxi，它是一个勇敢的、全副武装的“纳米机器人”(nanobot)。游戏中，Roxxi会在人体各个地方寻找并消灭癌细胞。

　　通过一一攻破游戏内设置的20个不同关卡，这些年轻的癌症患者(同时也是游戏玩家)可以借此了解他们身体内部都发生了些什么以及如何更为有效地对抗癌症。

　　试验证明游戏抗癌有效

　　由“Re-Mission”的开发者HopeLab对游戏结果进行了研究。研究涉及美国、加拿大和澳大利亚34所医疗中心内的375名青少年和成年人。研究结果显示，那些玩“Re-Mission”的年轻人和没玩这款游戏的人相比，前者在与癌症相关的的治疗功效、生活质量和癌症知识等方面都有了统计学上的明显改善。
