Mesothelioma treatments: Conventional or Alternative Treatments?
The treatment of mesothelioma is usually palliative in nature because the conventional interventions of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation have not been found to extend life.
Studies have been done on the effectiveness of immune enhancers such as interferon and cytokine, with varying results ranging up to doubling the life span from 12 months to 24 months and more.
One study indicates that some patients are able to benefit greatly with intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy (IPHC), enjoying 8 years of quality life experience to date.
IPHC threats the cancer by circulating a heated chemotherapy drug (Mitomicin-C) through the abdominal cavity for 2 hours after the tumor is surgically removed. As the name 'intreperitoneal' implies, this procedure is applied to
mesothelioma of the abdominal cavity.
Similar treatment of mesothelioma of the pleura, the chest cavity, is called Thoracoscopic Intrepleural Perfusion Hyperthermic Chemotherapy (TIPHC). The chemotherapy agent used in this study was Cisplatin. This is new art and much remains to be accomplished before these therapies are standard practice.
Alternative mesothelioma cancer treatments
There are many anecdotal evidences of the effective application of 'alternative' treatments to mesothelioma . Some have lived for years in good health after being told that they had as little as 2 months to live. Some of the therapies are dendritic cell therapy, heat
therapy and more.
Conventional medical practice is confined to those protocols that are 'scientific' in that they are derived from research and not from the natural resources that abound. This website has as its sole purpose, the promulgation of information that is outside the consideration of conventional medical practice, but has show itself to be safe, inexpensive and effective.
These treatments will not ever be tested because they are outside the purview of 'science' and are also outside the jurisdiction of the FDA to evaluate for the treatment of any disease. This leaves it up to to the patient to recognize and apply these reasonable considerations that have delivered thousands from all kinds of cancer.
For more information, you
can get instant access to the Cancer Treatment Books below. And
while they are not free, the authors have done extensive research and
some have had experience with thousands of cancer patients!
During
the past 100 years, medical practice has been conformed to the restraints
brought about by legal intervention to exclude many former practices and to
limit therapies to those that conform to the standards of the FDA and other
agencies. Prior to this time, many alternative protocols were openly
available. Some of these treatments are highly effective but are illegal to
prescribe because they don't conform to the current legal requirements.
It is therefore necessary for this site to limit its offering to information
only. We are not allowed to prescribe, so all decisions and outcomes are the
responsibility of the patient. If you have any doubts as to the validity of
this information, it is your responsibility to make your own choice and to
be responsible for the outcome of following your choices.
