When I studied biochemistry in the early 90s, nearly all my professors felt by this time chemo and radiation would be rare treatments. Sadly they are still the primary treatments so, in 5-10, we'll pretty much be right where we are now.

My dad was diagnosed with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (73 yo). Of the thyroid cancers, it's pretty much the worst with a 2% survival rate. His tumor was wrapped around the carotid artery and pushing up against his esophagus to almost perforating it. There were also a few spots in his lungs where it had metastasized. He was given more or less two months to live. Regardless, he started on radiation and chemotherapy. He then tested positive for the new gene therapy medication and started on that as well. This was all back in February. His latest PET scan showed zero tumor anywhere!! He's with us celebrating the holidays, which no one thought possible. It absolutely was not an easy year for him, nor is it still. The cancer drugs and treatments all did their jobs, but the side effects are brutal. He still has a long road ahead.

My mom (60 yo)had a terrible back pain that left her unable to walk. Turned out it was metastasis from the primary breast cancer she didn't know she had. The cancer was actually one that is very treatable, but no one gave her any chance at that late stage. They radiated the metastasis, started her on hormone therapy which has very few side effects, and 2 years later she is walking without any aid, cancer in total remission. I am basically in a country some people would call third world at times, so she did not have top notch medical treatment. If she got better, I can only imagine what is possible out there. Anyone saying there is no advancement is dillusional, especially the conspiracy theorists. This is incredibly hard, but there are tons of incredible people working on it, and, like everything else in science, it will take just one breakthrough somewhere where we never thought of before, or just skipped or overlooked.

My husband died 7 years ago from cancer. Most important is proper ID of the cancer. I read so many papers and he endured so many treatments. Some I was most afraid of were the most helpful. Some were very painful and not helpful. In the end it was the proliferation rate that called the shots. It was a mathematical game all along. I hope we will someday win this fight. So many health resources would be available for other purposes if we do. We as a world live in an exciting time. As a species we have the chance to learn to live sustainably and prosper without becoming a cancer ourselves. Never before have we had the resources to do this. Today we do if we learn to listen to our better angels and control the small thinking ego greed within.

You need to start METABOLIC therapy, cut out the carbs immediately! Look at Dr Thomas Seyfrieds work. The cancer treatment industry is huge for pharmaceutical industry, they do not want to develop a cure and have no interest in funding a natural cure. Metabolic therapy is scientifically proven and It drives me insane that hospitals just give you tons of drugs which drives your blood sugar up and feeds the cancer even more! You need to go on strict keto (less than 10g carbs a day) and do OMAD and even a very long prolonged fast if you have some extra bodyweight. If you want me to explain more I am more than happy to, I have read countless books and spoken to PHD researchers for my mum who also has stage 4.

As both a cancer patient and (former) biology major, I can certainly empathize with the difficulty in dealing with people ignorant of both how it works and how medicines are developed. This effort to educate us all is both welcome and much appreciated. Treatment options are continually getting better, regardless of which mutation you've got. My chemo regimen is relatively light in that, while it isn't pleasant, it isn't debilitating either. I'm able to work my career full-time and otherwise (more or less) live my life as I see fit, and my disease, despite not being caught until stage 4 is, at least for the time being, stable. Also, Dr. Malkas isn't kidding about platins being rough; my primary treatment included 6 months of oxaliplatin, and 2 years later I still have neuropathy in my fingers that appears to be permanent. Great discussion!

“How it works” is people make billions off of cancer, maybe trillions even. I personally know people that have traveled to Mexico, paid 10’s of thousand’s of dollars and are still alive and well. When i ran into a friend that was convinced he was going to die, i was speechless when i saw how healthy he was.After having chemo and who knows what else done to them in the US with no success. To anyone that has lost hope, lookup “alternative cancer treatments” in places like Ensenada, BC Mexico.

Neil, you should have interviewed Dr. Thomas N. Seyfried. He is Professor of Biology at Boston College, and received his Ph.D. in Genetics and Biochemistry.

Re the 16:00 mark, the real question to ask is what conditions make cancer thrive in the body - we have amazing treatments already, and they lie in prevention and changing the conditions of the body every day (as she said at the start, on average 8 cancer cells are created each day, and our body either deals with them or they accumulate - why?). Jason Fung The Cancer Code author would be another great interview.

I hope you have Dr. Linda Malkus back. She is a wonderful teacher about cancer research.

Thank you Neil. My daughter was diagnosed with Fibrolameller HCC in August of 2019. flHCC is an ultra rare cancer that starts in the liver. She is 1 in 5,000,000. It is so rare that there is no standard of treatment other that to do surgery and hope you get it all. Liver surgery of this type is a grueling procedure that takes a minimum of 6 weeks to recover from. The median age for flHCC is 23. My daughter was 23 when diagnosed. A 9cm tumor was removed during her first surgery. Almost50 percent 8f her liver was removed. A year later her scan showed new growth. Surgery was done again and lymph nodes were removed. 3 months later scans showed two new possible spots and surgery was done on the non lu g spot. That turned out to be a false positive but still required 6 weeks to recover again. One more surgery was required to remove stitches that did not dissolve properly. She has now been NED - no evidence of disease for over 3 years. Obviously we all hope these good scans continue forever but this has a nasty habit of coming back as many cancers do. This AO-1996 sounds like a winner. Thank you for raising awareness about this drug.

This topic is such an important one because the disease impacts so many directly and indirectly. I’m currently writing a book about cancer and the use of an anti parasite drug you can buy online that’s seems to be helping some people with cancer heal. I was happy to hear Dr Malkas flat out say the truth, that cancer is a parasite. Another point I’d like to share…. One of the things I love the most about StarTalk is the humor. Big fan of humor. Cancer is a more difficult topic to pull off humor with if you put yourself in the position of someone who has it and is listening. I didn’t feel like anything crossed the line and I’m not criticizing or complaining. I’m simply sharing that cancer is diabolical and that shooting for a laugh while talking about it is a lot like walking a tight rope in a windstorm. Thanks again for all of your work in bringing fascinating and potentially life changing topics to the world StarTalk team!

I think I once read that neuro cells could reproduce, but the regeneration cycle of those cells is longer than we live. Also I think I learned that cancer cells reproduce very quickly. It sparked an idea that if we were able to harness the regeneration power of cancer we may be able to treat neurological issues. Is that crazy?

I am a stage 4 cancer patient currently fighting. How can I ask about trial information? I was diagnosed five years ago at stage 4 with Gastro-intestinal stromal tumors or "GIST". Its a rare type that affects less than 5,000 Americans a year from what I'm told. I am in my early 30s and am somewhat of a medical oddity. Usually this disease affects people 60 plus. Ive only seen one other mid 30s male in a study for gist. I am currently on my fifth line of defence and have had a whipple surgery two years ago with a partial liver resection. The primary location was extending off the duodenum and was 7" when they removed it with 3/4 of my liver, the tip of my pancrease and a bunch of other stuff. Several months ago we discovered it has matastasized to my bones and ive undergone targeted radiation therapy twice for 9 locations in total now. I basically am playing whack-a-mole with radiation beating back tumors that pop up. When Niel and the Doc were talking about cancer resistance I had a very personal acknowledgment of how smart and evasive this disease can be. I am currently on TKI inhibiters which was also a moment of recognition for me when she mentioned them... ive been on four LOL! I actually have a scan im not looking forward to this Friday and am not expecting great news. I would love to inquire about the possibility of being a good candidate for the trial. I have already been on two trials. One was prior to FDA authorization. How can I contact Dr. Malkas? Thank you in advance!!!!! Great show Mr. Tyson! Both guests were great with great questions!

You're an exciting group speaking of something that makes sense to me. I think it would help me to have more space to speak from. I spent most of my life being too shy or timid to speak in front of strangers so, attempts resulted in the energy feeling hostile or no nervous. Now I speak inwards to my guts, and the more I do, the easier I feel about talking in public. So yes I'd love to test my senses with folks who are interested, too. I also hear differently than others and that's how my family talk too, so it isn't just me. I hope to find local interest in hearing from me for the purpose. I think I'd be cured of little scars inside.

Very well explained👍 Let me proffer another complimentary explanation. Cancer is not a "disease" its a myriad of diseases that occur when the mechanisms that control cell proliferation go awry. Though some cancers share some mechanisms, the fact is that there are a myriad of possible mechanisms that may or not be happening at the same time, in effect most tumors like people are their own little personal malignant cosmos in their own self! To make things worse, as the presenter pointed out, every generation of tumor cells is different and thus may have evolved a new particular way to evade therapy, in effect, evolving to live another day! Luckily, some malignancues evolve slowly or not at all and are thus perfect targets for targeted therapy. Chronic myelogenous leukemia being a perfect example, but for most common malignacies (carcinomas or epithelial dervided tumors) that is not the reality. Targeted therapy which began decades ago with tyrosine kinase inhibitors has a long way to go and, even when successful, is most often not a magic bullet. Cancer genomics makes rocket science seem like a kindergarten activity 😬

My husband has stage 4 metastatic progressive cancer with a Gleason score of 9. He’s had cancer since 2010. Recently we were given the option of Hospice or Pluvicto. In order to do pluvicto your kidneys must function at 30 and above. His kidneys are functioning at 20. Any advise?

As someone who has family currently suffering from cancer and family who died from cancer, many blessings to you and your family for the work you do.

THAT MONEY WOULD HAVE BEEN WELL SPENT TO LOBBY CONGRESS TO STOP THESE PEOPLE FROM TAKING BRIBES FROM THE INDUSTRY AND PROMOTE MEDICAL EDUCATION CONDUCIVE TO HEALTH NOT DISEASE MANAGEMENT. TEACH DOCTORS TO CURE AND PREVENT DISEASE NOT MANAGE IT.. FOR GOD SAKES.

all caps are harder to READ ! :)@@moshegoldsmith besides, your message is despicable, think about it, basicaly what you are saying is that this young girl got cancer because of her lifestyle, and we should lobby (bribe) congress, not to accept other bribes, and teach young people how to prevent cancer ? please get lost, cancer is not always affecting people because of any decision they made

What a wonderful video! I have recently been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and am now on chemo and very whacky blood sugars along with long-term cardiac issues. I hope someday Linda will receive the many prizes she and her team deserve for this great work. I just subscribed to StarTalk. Thank you, Neil and all for putting this on.

One of, if not the greatest "dumbing down" explanations that I have ever heard about a subject that I definitely need a "dumbing down" explanation for! Yo StarTalk, thank you for Dr Malkas, and Star Talk!

I lost my mom to cancer. I have a treatable form of it., skin or melanoma. But, I may get ripped for this, darn she's pretty! I had to say it, even though I watched the entire video and appreciated the info. But yeah, I loved listening to her. Thanks StarTalk. I couldn't help but compliment her. And I had to add this... what a great speaker!

A great video and the fact that Linda spent so much time and research on testing and finding the area in cell that drug companies had already said could not done. She must be acknowledged as being a great scientist.

One of many things we humans have learned in recent decades is that yes, cancer can and probably will take our life. But our departure from our lives, our selves, our loved ones, need not take place in a sterile hospital room, the patient separated from the world by a ventilator and sedative drugs. With some planning, and guidance from people whose vocation is to do this, we now have the option of departing on our own terms, without the intractable pain and terror. Dying is as natural a process as being born. And as with many cases of childbirth, in the dying process there can be complications. But science and enlightened hospice professionals have provided us the means to experience the end of life without sedation and the noise of machines, and instead say goodbye to our loved ones and they to us, and then just gently fall asleep. At age 73 and having lost several family members to cancer, my worst fears have been quelled and replaced with the knowledge I am going to a different place, and wherever that is, having been born and lived, I know I will forever be a part of eternity.

Also Dr. Michael Levin. He has a more fundamental understanding of cancer and is doing incredible research. His approach is to work with the bio-electricity of cells. Really mind blowing. It would be great if all these scientists would work together and share their discoveries.

correct me if I am wrong. But cancer cells always change stuff (e.g. switch off and on certain enzymes or proteins regulating growth/cell death). Some of those changed cells just have a disadvantage on other cells, unless chemotherapy (compounds like Cis/Carboplatin) are introduced. Then suddenly these have an advantages and that is the reason the cancer reoccurs. Even that is the reason for mixed responses, where you have cell clusters (metastasis) that grow despite the rest of the tumor mass is receding. Targeting a pathway with so many allyways for tumor growth sounds really interesting! My question would be if any cancer (brain, liver, lung, breast etc) can be targeted with AOH1996.

I'm into this I was recruited to molecular biology early on before I settled into FNP. Let's listen

I am thinking, we might be walking tumours, in a way

This was a lovely stand out video

One of the best guests thus far. She’s amazing. Please have her back in a year or two for an update on everything!

❤😂 I have a good friend that has breast cancer and I've learned so much from this episode of Star Talk I want to thank you thank you thank you!😅😅😅❤❤ this is the best show you've ever had and probably ever will to anybody that has anything to do with cancer and the future of any other molecular designed and or repaired disease

Maybe, cleaning up our air,water,food systems as opposed to polluting them, just might limit devastating outcomes that permeate our society!

How much does it cost to produce? After availability this is most important.

My dad died of pancreatic cancer 2 weeks ago, it was too late to do anything when he got diagnosed

I'm dying of 2 kinds of cancer and I don't think I'm going to see a cure. It's been fun watching your show. How come Xtandi cost $32K a month. I'm going to die early cause I can't afford that.

Watch Jim bruer's podcast episode 110 . With Kevin Henning, he had stage 4 cancer and 1 month to live . He took a dewormer from brazil and cured his cancer in 14 weeks . It's banned in America because exactly what these guys in the video were joking about . It's cheap and big pharma and the government can't make money off of healthy people. Look into what I'm saying you might be surprised

It's called fenbendizol or fembendisol I'm not sure how to spell it but it supposedly can cure cancer because it's believed that cancer is parasitic. I wouldn't even say this if I didn't think it was true, look up the video I told you about watch it and then you can make your decision. I hope this helps

This was truly beautiful discussion. Very grateful to Dr. Linda Markas. And all the teams that are working against cancer. 🙏🙏

One of the best interviews I have watched.

Dang linda and work mates all deserve planets ❤ thank you linda and crew for shinning a light in darkness

So glad Neil is sharing on such a large scale … i am so much a richer being.

I truly hope her findings enter the public domain quickly

FS wise up - another uneducated tinfoil hat wearer joins the thread 😅

Great and informative talk. I'm excited to hear about these new treatments. Keep up the good work Linda!

Amazing type of therapy. Protein targeting should be the way to go with all future treatments as every living organism has proteins present. Impressive work. I was born in Jackson Heights and spent my first three years in The Flushing/Kew Gardens area before moving out to Long Island (technically just further out on the Island 😁). Great steps going on in medical research.

In my opinion this is possibly one of the best episodes of star talk. Great work!

Excellent interview. Would love to discover more people like Linda. An Amazing person with such passion, determination and skill.

SURE ANOTHER CO WORKER COMING TO THE RESCUE !PLZ

I always believed that if cancer makes so many abnormal proteins, these proteins could be used as drug targets. I'm happy someone followed through on that. After all, we already use these proteins as diagnostic tools. My only concern is that drugs would have to be tailor-made for every patient since these mutations are so random and unique from patient to patient.

I can feel my brain matter increasing. Thanks for the episode Dr. Linda and the star team.

This video is absolutely incredible. I am hopeful we can cure cancer in my lifetime 🙏

Dr. Malkas is hands down one of the smartest people I’ve ever had the pleasure to listen to! I’ll echo the other comments that it’s because of brilliant people like her that we WILL find a cure!! 🙏🙌💓

Thanks star talk

Excellent and informative video! However, cancer is such a multifaceted and complex malady that finding a "cure" will probably always remain illusive. I hope that the clinical trials for AOH1996 go well and that it gets FDA approval soon. Good luck Dr. Malkas! 👍👍

You are trying to explain it or have an opinion when an expert is discussing it is laughable. You are a nobody, know your place.
