P53 gene

P53 gene:
I typed this title in the search area but nothing came up. This gene is supposedly the master gene. My onc said that grade 3 tumours usually indicate there is a defect in the p53 gene and this is what can cause relapses. There is a lot of info out there about it but I wondered if there might be info on this site? Is there a way to repair it, maybe with diet or supplements? With all the research out there on genomes I am hopeful.
