hi, everyone.
I am new to here. I just want to share unusual treatment site.
http://www.lowdosenaltrexone.org.
Several Cancers mentioned there, but no ASPS.
any idea?
Does Low Dose Naltrexone Treatment Work for ASPS?
Re: Does Low Dose Naltrexone Treatment Work for ASPS?
Looks like there a couple of promising published case studies for other cancers -
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20042414
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12080288
But there are no large controlled trials yet. It would be like taking a shot in the dark at this point. What is your situation that you are considering this in place of better known options?
Also when I saw "can boost the immune system" on the site, I face palmed. For example, here's a page which addressed this myth - http://www.health.harvard.edu/flu-resou ... system.htm

Re: Does Low Dose Naltrexone Treatment Work for ASPS?
thanks for your reply. Actually i am not familiar with the LDN treatment. I never heard it until I saw someone's comment on UK dailymail health news "'Universal' cancer jab: Vaccine that stops all tumours in their tracks could be here in two years"
the news link is http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/artic ... years.html
there they mentioned "TeloVac". Someone points out the way how TeloVac works is a bit similar to how LDN works. while we know now many people choose to quit the LDN treatment. a little bit worry about TeloVac will end up the same way as LDN.

It's very unlikely that there could ever be a universal cancer vaccine, just because so many dissimilar diseases are hiding under the name cancer.
General news sites are absolutely garbage when it comes to health news. All they care about is cheap hype to generate sales. There is no better cheap hype than the words "cure for cancer".
TeloVac is GV1001, right? Looking at the research, there is some promise (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19388882) but it's not terrible effective. For some things (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21377838) it doesn't work at all.
So it could work for some things, or could be a good combination therapy with another treatment due to its low toxicity. There is also always a possibility it could make things worse and actually shorten survival. Nobody knows until research progresses.
