Posted on Healthyfixx 2 months before Mercola.

hehe, I saw that. Can't believe Mercola's ripping off Brian's stuff already.

Hearing the father tell the story of how his little girl could of been saved if the medical establishment wouldn't have tortured her to death, stuck in my mind all day. Thinking alot more people need to see this video so we can get this thing changed sooner than later.

Good news:

the alternative medicine practitioners are big into "libel" suits. i just dont get why they dont do more well constructed trials of their treatments rather than relying on anecdote.

I take it you've both seen the film?

I've seen it.

So you can understand the slight inclination to have a lot of very aggressive lawyers.

So threatening someone's family is legal and a legitimate method now?

Nope, but seeing as you missed my point, his clinic has had a lot of unjust legal action against it and whatever his lawyers might have overshot on some internet rant, the differences between that and his persecution are black and white. I came in here to talk about the medicine, haha, somehow the people behind ideas are focused on that much more than the ideas themselves.

Eric Merola, director of Burzynski - The Movie, is out with a new film:

SYNOPSIS:

The War On Cancer, launched in the early 1970s, set the stage for a massive influx of new ideas in fighting the disease of cancer. Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, America’s leading cancer research center at the time, was assigned the task of testing an unconventional therapy called “Laetrile” in an effort to curb the public’s “false hope” in the alleged “quack” therapy.

Ralph W. Moss PhD, a young and eager science writer, was hired by Sloan-Kettering’s public relations department in 1974 to help brief the American public on the center’s contribution to the War On Cancer. One of his first assignments was to write a biography about Dr. Kanematsu Sugiura, one of the Center’s oldest and leading research scientists as well as the original co-inventor of chemotherapy.

While meeting with this iconic scientist to pen a biography on his 60-year career at Sloan-Kettering, Moss discovered that Sugiura had been studying this “quack remedy” in laboratory mice, and with unexpectedly positive results. Shocked and bewildered, Moss reported back to his superiors what he had discovered, only to be met with backlash and denial from Sloan-Kettering’s leaders on what their own leading scientist had found.

Fueled by respect and admiration for Sugiura—Ralph W. Moss attempted to publicize the truth about Sugiura’s findings. And after all diplomatic approaches failed, Moss lived a double life, working as a loyal employee at Sloan-Kettering while also recruiting fellow employees to help anonymously leak this information to the American public—through a newly formed underground organization they called—“Second Opinion”

That's bias if I've ever read it. Burzynski has had FDA supervised trials for over a decade. Phase III requires over a 100 million dollar check from Burzynski.

Only Corporations large enough to pay off the absurd fees to the FDA even have a chance.

Many who successfully fight cancer and win have to practice offshore, free of FDA tyranny. This is about protection of the cancer monopoly. The money is in the treatment, cure is a four-letter word in the industry.

"I’ll spare the gory details, but when all was said and done:

   * We were out almost $20,000 to the clinic
   * We were out money for accommodations since the Burzynski Clinic is an outpatient facility
   * We were out money for travel expenses
   * AND, after we got home and started figuring up all the medications they had put him on and how much it would cost us to keep him on them, we nearly choked on our tongues when it added up to almost $30,000.00 per month!

You would think that is as bad as it could get…but NO!!! After we decided there was no possible way we could afford to do this we called the clinic to see how we might start weaning him off the medicine prescribed by Burzynski Clinic. WE WERE NOT TRANSFERRED TO A NURSE OR DOCTOR, BUT TO THE INSURANCE COORDINATOR!!! We never received any information from them with instructions on how to come off the meds.
We ended up calling our local pharmacist and he was able to help us out.".

So much for the poor, daring maverick of quack cancer cures.

'There is a scientific consensus that antineoplaston therapy is unproven and of little promise in treating cancer. Clinical trials initiated in 1993 and sponsored by the National Cancer Institute were closed due to inability to recruit qualifying patients, and a Mayo Clinic study found no benefit from antineoplaston treatment.[1] Some sixty phase 2 clinical trials and one Phase 3 trial have been registered by Burzynski since the mid-1990s, but no results have been published. The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center has stated: "Bottom Line: There is no clear evidence to support the anticancer effects of antineoplastons in humans."[1]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burzynski_Clinic

"What Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski doesn’t want you to know about antineoplastons'"

So what exactly is Burzynski up to? Why, if sodium phenylbutyrate is available from not one, but two pharmaceutical companies as an orphan drug and the NCI and many other researchers are investigating it (and were investigating phenylacetate before that), would Dr. Burzynski have such an interest in portraying himself as a “brave maverick doctor“? Why does he still have such an intense interest in attracting people to his clinic using the “antineoplaston” brand name, now coupled with his new brand, “personalized gene-targeted cancer therapy”? Why does he sell so much chemotherapy–yes, chemotherapy, as I have shown–along with cocktails of expensive targeted therapies which, although less toxic than cytotoxic chemotherapy, still carry risks, not to mention cost a lot of money? Why do his supporters (and, let’s be honest, Dr. Burzynski himself) portray his therapy as “nontoxic” and “not chemotherapy,” even implying that it is not a product of big pharma, even though we have just seen that it is?

"The Burzynski clinic is a highly profitable miracle cancer cure fraud cutting-edge research institution in Texas, run by its founder, the Polish-born "Dr" Stanisław Burzyński — at least he says he's a doctor but his alma mater are rather equivocal on the matter and there is skepticism over his qualifications.[1][2][3][4][5]"

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Burzynski_clinic

Yet the National Cancer Institute says there is no evidence that Burzynski has cured a single patient, or even helped one live longer. He has not backed up his claims by publishing results from a randomized, controlled trial — considered the gold standard of medical evidence — in a respected, peer-reviewed journal.

And Burzynski's drugs pose a risk of serious harm, including coma, swelling near the brain and death, according to the NCI and informed consent documents that patients sign before beginning treatment. While Burzynski has touted his treatments as an alternative to chemotherapy, a 1999 NCI study found that antineoplastons can cause many of the same side effects as conventional chemo: nausea, vomiting, headaches, muscle pain, confusion and seizures.

Many blame the system for failing to protect patients.

"He's a snake oil salesman," says pediatric oncologist Peter Adamson, a professor of pediatrics and pharmacology at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. "This has gone on for so many years, it's really unbelievable."

Violet ray, anyone?

Burzynski story is messy and stinky, i agree. And tnx for adding another angle to look at it.

Don't know what violet ray has to do with it. It seems like you are using this item to bash down electronic-medicine at the same step as well. Not very clever, even if you think for violet ray on its own...

Stanislaw Burzynski publishes 42.5% of one clinical trial

"The study was designed as a single-arm, two-stage, phase II trial of ANP as monotherapy. The study was listed by the National Cancer Institute (NCT00003459). It was supervised by an independent Institutional Review Board (BRI-IRB, BCBT- 11). The study was performed"[/b]

This “independent” IRB is, of course, the same IRB that is chaired by an old crony of Burzynski’s from Baylor who also happens to be the chair of the board of the Burzynski Research Institute. It’s also the same IRB that was recently roundly condemned in an FDA warning letter for abusing the single patient IND process, failing to provide adequate informed consent, and failing to protect patients interests and make sure that the risks of BRI clinical trials are minimized.

Sad news: A Burzynski success story is gone[/b]

And this one too:

I've dealt with this patients and have heard from them directly. Plus I attended fund raisers to bail him out of jail.

There is a witch hunt and has been for a long time. Watch both of his movies.

Wikipedia is not a place to look up medical information.

This industry is about money and it's very ruthless.

Burzynski is the real deal.

Let's do the math here:

If Burzynski cures 1 out of 3 people, that's a success. The success rates are about that. He doesn't claim
any different.

Let's compare that to cut, burn and poison who ultimately charges more for there toxic therapies.
Their definition of success is surviving 5 years. So if you keel over at year 6, you're still a "survivor."

Burzynski's patients blow away the toxic competition.

I'm always suspicious when I hear that someone has "died of cancer." More likely, conventional cancer treatment killed them.

Very comprehensive site about alternative cancer treatments: http://www.healingcancernaturally.com
Dr. Burzynski's work is discussed there as well.

Where is the research, the trial results, the methods, the conclusions? Can't find anything other
than an abstract.

In the Marino book I'm reading his interactions with the FDA in trying to get a carbon fiber artificial knee replacement approved for use in the US, ARE ABSOLUTELY FUCKING MIND BLOWING.

THE FDA is corrupt as all hell. It is an entity unto itself and, to that end, it serves its own interests. NOT THE INTERESTS OF THE PUBLIC.

When I get some time I can expand further. Or just read the book.

Odysseus - If you work on the non-dark side (the alternative to cut, burn and poison), industry, its starts to become self evident how spurious things are when pro status quo, establishment, desperately attempts to vilify their competition.

The FDA raids those interested in healing. The truth is, orthodox medicine is a medical monopoly, bought and paid for by the medical industrial complex.

What kills more people than traffic accidents?

Prescription drugs taken as directed.

Anyone who claims Burzynski isn't the real deal, doesn't know what their taking about period.

He's not the only game in town, but he's one of the few who risk remaining in the USA.
Cure is a four letter word these days.

scotty, i wish to read your summary about that book...
