Re: Chemo Not Needed for Most Early Breast Cancer: TAILORx

Chemo kills a percentage of cells. Say 99.9%. There are still many cancer cells left and the survivors are resistant to the chemo that killed 99.9% of their "siblings." In time these survivors grow and multiply enough to form new mets. This new cancer is resistant to previous chemos.

The key may be copper reduction. Once you kill 99.9% of the original cancer, if you reduce the serum copper to 20% of normal, you have enough copper in your body to live but not enough copper for the surviving cancer cells to grow to more than about one million cells which is very small and insignificant. Once the cancer reaches this one million cell limit the cancer has to produce its own blood vessels to grow further and copper is an important cofactor for blood vessel formation known as angiogenesis.

Look up the work of Dr. Linda Vahdut and her use of Ammonium Tetrathiomolybdate copper chelation as a treatment for the aggressive triple negative breast cancer. The pioneer in the use of copper reduction as a treatment for cancer is Dr. George Brewer. He did his work in 1999 and published his results in 2000, 18 years ago. Yet so little is known about it. It should be on the news. I think these discoveries are far more important than what the media broadcasts today.

I mention Dr Vahdut and copper reduction for triple negative breast cancer. It is not just breast cancer. At present cancer cells of all types need copper for angiogenesis. There are 2 of courses.

1. Even tough you could treat breast, pancreatic, esophageal, colon, and other cancers (melanoma, even lymphomas and leukemias ) with copper reduction therapy, obviously the results in the differing cancers would differ, some being effectively treated, others not.

2. Of course in time a cancer may mutate to the point where copper is no longer needed for angiogenesis.

At the present time it is.We have to deal with now
