Re: old-time NSAID INHIBITS CANCER CELL GROWTH, SETS OFF CANCER CELL DEATH

the studies aren't there

No money to test something already FDA approved and generic

Dr. David Feldman of Stanford noted 90+% inhibition of growth when he combined high doses of vitamin D and naprosyn on prostate cancer cells.

He got funds for a small trial of high doses of vitamin D (much higher than supplements and capable of causing kidney stones if taken continuously) on men with "mildly" metastatic prostate cancer ie, slow growing

While taking the combination, their PSA levels stayed low and their cancers did not progress, but they ran out of money for the trial and as they stopped taking their medications their PSAs started to rise.

I believe Stanford got a little money to start a similar trial with breast cancer patients, but haven't heard any more about it...

Have not seen any papers re relative merits/dosages of aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, sulidac, etc.
