This is a site
devoted to evidence-based unconventional “alternative”
cancer treatments. The site is unique because it represents
the personal vision of Raymond
Chang MD (RC) who has an iconoclastic perspective
on modern day cancer treatment. The definition of alternative
medicine usually covers a spectrum that spans what is
fringe (eg psychedelic surgery, miracle healers, chelation
and vitamin drips) to modalities that have already been
integrated into mainstream (eg acupuncture) but here
we define our content as that which is considered evidence-based
and yet not conventional i.e. that which is not conventionally
practiced by oncologists or offered at major institutional
cancer centers. Evidence based indicates likelihood
of efficacy of the biological pathways
(eg antiangiogenesis), modalitiy (eg investigational
drug) as well as individual agents
(eg tetrathiomolybdate) and with respect to specific
cancers. . . |
