We're 44 00:02:57.199 --> 00:03:01.080 talking about people just like you, probably who never thought 45 00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:04.000 they'd have cancer, who never thought we'd meet, and then 46 00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:05.840 all of a sudden for one reason or another, and 47 00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:08.319 that we're going to explain in the next hour why 48 00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:10.719 people come, and what happens when they come, and where 49 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:13.400 they've been before, and what's the result of it all, 50 00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:16.919 and why listen. Well, number one, we're not selling anything, 51 00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:20.439 so you keep your hand off your wallet. We're only informing. 52 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:23.680 We're trying to educate so you get better healthcare for 53 00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:27.680 yourself and your loved one, your family, your friends, and 54 00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:29.800 even the person down the street. And you'll be so 55 00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:33.319 informed that you will tell people who are wondering, oh, 56 00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:35.039 I've got cancer, I don't know what to do. They 57 00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:37.400 want to cut off my arm or my lung, or 58 00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:40.120 my breast, or my kidney, or my prostate, or my bladder, 59 00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:43.120 or my colon or my lung or wherever my nose 60 00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:45.319 or my ear. They want to cut it off. They 61 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:46.759 want to do that. They want to give me chemo 62 00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:49.479 for the rest of my life. Well, we've all heard that. 63 00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:52.120 I hear that sad to say every day because many 64 00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:57.159 of my patients come from other places that are eager 65 00:03:57.199 --> 00:03:59.639 to give chemo, it seems, and eager to do surgery. 66 00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:04.360 It seems often not to inform people of all the options, 67 00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:08.759 options that are hidden from so many patients. And that's 68 00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:10.960 what I do every day. Min's doctor Gil Liederman. I'm 69 00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:14.759 a board certified radiation doctor trained at Harvard Medical School. 70 00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.199 I'm going to introduce myself later, but I do want 71 00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:20.000 to jump in and start talking about patients. And these 72 00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:23.040 are all patients I've seen recently. And when people come 73 00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:27.040 to me, I take notes and document what's happened, and 74 00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:29.000 then I come to you and you'll learn everything about 75 00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:32.680 that person, well except for their name, rank and serial number. 76 00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:35.279 You'll know everything about that person that's important for you 77 00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:38.319 to know, and that is what kind of person they are. 78 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:41.360 Where they came from, how they got this cancer if 79 00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:43.560 we know, and then what happened to them, and that's 80 00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:45.160 what we're going to talk about. And so it's kind 81 00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:48.199 of like being in medical school for a medical student. 82 00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:50.399 You get to learn, you get to be in the group. 83 00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:54.079 You get to be in the medical group and learn 84 00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:56.600 and learn how doctors talk and doctors think and what 85 00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:00.480 happens elsewhere. It's a behind the scenes view, the only 86 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:05.120 such radio program in the world. So you have a 87 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:09.240 unique view at cancer care from a prospective of a 88 00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:11.120 doctor in New York. And this is what we do 89 00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:14.000 every day. This is what I do every day Monday 90 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:19.560 through Friday, and also on weekends and pretty much all 91 00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:21.920 my waking hours. I'll talking about a man who came 92 00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:25.360 to me seventy seven years old. He's married, had three children. 93 00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:27.000 Came with his wife and his daughter. He had a 94 00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.720 history of heart disease and heart failure and cardiac extents 95 00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:35.199 and high blood pressure and COPD and cholesterol, and he 96 00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:37.600 had history of cancer in the past. He had prosta 97 00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:41.720 cancer in the past, and well he had had a 98 00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:45.519 bladder cancer and he had treatment for the bladder cancer. 99 00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:48.360 And while that was all being worked up, he was 100 00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:50.279 found to have. The bladder cancer, by the way, was 101 00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:54.360 a superficial cancer, not an invasive cancer, which doesn't need 102 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:58.720 the intensity of treatment of a deep invasive bladder cancer. 103 00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:04.120 But of course treat invasive bladder cancers without cutting, without bleeding. 104 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:06.839 And it's so shocking because I see so many people 105 00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:09.720 with bladder cancer and they're planning or they already had 106 00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:12.120 radical surgeon. We're going to talk about that later in 107 00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:16.079 the program. And they never were told by their surgeons 108 00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:18.600 or their other doctors. They were never told. They tell 109 00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:23.240 me that there were non invasive, highly successful treatments keeping 110 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:26.959 the bladder. Removing the bladder is a big deal. This 111 00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:28.959 man had bladder cancer when he came to his but 112 00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:32.680 it was superficial. It had prosta cancer was treated. Now 113 00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:35.360 he comes to me, he was worked up and he 114 00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:37.319 had a cat scan and the cat scan showed a 115 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.959 mass in the kidney. And often there's something called the 116 00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:44.079 field defects of people that have cancers in the kidney 117 00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.959 or urders or bladders have one in the other area. 118 00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:51.759 And sure enough, this man had three cancers in the 119 00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:57.079 field kidney, bladder, and prostate. He came to us and 120 00:06:57.120 --> 00:06:59.800 he's a little bit chubby. He's an ex smoker at 121 00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:04.399 a heart attack, and he's a bit overweight and a 122 00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:07.879 bit incapacitated. It's hard for him to walk, it's hard 123 00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.720 for him to move. And the doctors found this kidney 124 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:13.160 cancer and all they could think about is cutting out 125 00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:16.319 his kidney. But the man didn't want is kidney cut out. 126 00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.120 He did not probably think he would survive it. He 127 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:23.800 had COPD, he had shorts of breath, he walked with 128 00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:27.279 a cane, he had heart failure, I had blood pressure COPD. 129 00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:29.800 And he came to us and he wanted to learn 130 00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:33.279 about options that weren't being offered at one of the 131 00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:39.160 biggest super duper hospitals in the neighboring state, Connecticut. And 132 00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:42.360 he came and we staged him up and elsewhere. There 133 00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:44.720 was no biopsy. There was just a mass and they 134 00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:47.040 wanted to cut out the kidney. And that's very common. 135 00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:50.920 Most eurologists that I know about wanted to just cut 136 00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:53.240 out the kidney. And they say, why cut it why biops, 137 00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:55.680 you want I can just cut it out, Well, cut 138 00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:58.839 it out, and that's half of your urinary system, that's 139 00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:02.600 half of your kidney capacity in the garbage usually, and 140 00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:04.600 I know they could say something's remove part of it, 141 00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:08.439 but almost always so commonly, the whole kidney's removed. I 142 00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:11.120 think it's easier for the surgeons had to say, it's 143 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:13.759 harder for the patient. And so this man had a 144 00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.720 mass in the kidney. They had no biopsy, even with 145 00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:19.360 heart failure and COPD, and he could barely walk, he 146 00:08:19.399 --> 00:08:22.600 could barely move. The surgeon wanted to cut out his kidney. 147 00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:26.560 And then he came to doctor Liederman at Radio Surgeon, 148 00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:29.879 New York, and everything was upside down. Here. We don't 149 00:08:29.920 --> 00:08:32.039 want to do anything except to inform you. We talk 150 00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:34.919 about all the options. We talk about all the options 151 00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:37.639 to everybody, and we talk about all the options to 152 00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:40.639 this man. He was never told, hey, I can cut 153 00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:42.799 out your kidney, but you may not survive it, and 154 00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:45.320 you may not survive without this kidney, and you may 155 00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.279 not survive with going through a big operation with all 156 00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:51.320 your other heart disease and lung disease and heart failure. 157 00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:56.080 And they never told him there's non invasive treatment. And 158 00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:59.639 well he heard through the grapevine, like from a radio 159 00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:03.320 listener like you on the radio, that there were non 160 00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:08.039 invasive treatments for so many cancers that are here done 161 00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:12.360 by doctor Liederman with experience over decades, forty thousand patients 162 00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:16.000 treated over decades, and this man came to me. We 163 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:17.919 staged him up. We didn't want to make sure there 164 00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:20.720 was any cancer that had traveled, and there was none. 165 00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:23.200 And we offered a little tiny biopsy, which is a 166 00:09:23.240 --> 00:09:25.879 tiny little needle and you're not obliged to have it, 167 00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:28.399 but it's advisable. Most people want to know if they 168 00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:32.440 have cancer or not. And he had the biopsy, and 169 00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:35.600 he had the staging, and lucky for him, he had 170 00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:39.960 no spread of his documented kidney cancer and he was 171 00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:45.000 treated and recently he's come for follow up with new imaging, 172 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:49.399 non invasive imaging, and he remember never for his kidney cancer, 173 00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:53.440 never had chemo and never had emotherapy, and never had surgery. 174 00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:58.519 Only a tiny little biopsy, painless biopsy took minutes, and 175 00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:02.399 then treatment with invisible beams. Invisible beams directed at that 176 00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:07.360 kidney cancer and treatments take about ten minutes. We lined 177 00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:09.639 up the beams, we set them in a stereotactic frame, 178 00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:12.279 which is a unique system to hold the body in 179 00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:16.120 position and to coordinate the body in the stereotactic frame, 180 00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:19.919 which is an outside frame of reference and the cancer itself, 181 00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:22.559 and we're able to send in beams just to hit 182 00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.200 the cancer in this man who is chunky and heart 183 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:30.720 failure COPD could barely move. But he did not want 184 00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:34.840 that cancer to exist in his body, and he did 185 00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:36.600 not want to have surgery. He thought he would never 186 00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:39.440 survive it. And furthermore, he didn't want to lose his kidney. 187 00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.120 And he came here and was treated and treatments for 188 00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:46.480 as I say, ten to fifteen minutes. Came in, got 189 00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:49.879 his treatment, turned around, drove back to Connecticut, and now 190 00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:53.639 back here for check up again. And check up shows 191 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:59.600 no cancer, totally obliterated by radio surgery. He has his kidney, 192 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:02.720 He has his function. Actually he said his function is 193 00:11:02.759 --> 00:11:05.840 better than ever, his strength is better than ever. There 194 00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:10.320 was no cutting, no bleeding, no anesthesia, no loss of 195 00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:14.279 his kidney, which is so different than super duper places 196 00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:17.039 that he saw elsewhere. And it's not only in Connecticut, 197 00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:20.399 it's almost everywhere, it seems that surgeons want to remove 198 00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:24.759 the kidney.

Hey, doctor Liederman, we're back. 270 00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:44.919 We are back. I want to talk about another man 271 00:15:44.919 --> 00:15:48.480 from Connecticut. Sixty nine year old man. He's married, he 272 00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:54.639 has a family. He came desperate, another desperate man from Connecticut. 273 00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:57.279 He had a history of tonsil cancer, so he's got 274 00:15:57.279 --> 00:15:59.960 a cancer of the tonsils. He was a smoker. All 275 00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:03.799 it's another reminder if you're smoking, please stop. If you 276 00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.039 have loved when smoking, please encourage him to stop. Please 277 00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:12.080 never start so risky. Anyway, this man had a tonsil 278 00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:16.360 cancer and he had radiation and another facility in Connecticut, 279 00:16:16.840 --> 00:16:19.120 and he had a kidney cancer, which is also related 280 00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:22.720 to smoking. So he's already had two cancers related to smoking, 281 00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:27.720 tonsil cancer, throat cancer and kidney cancer. And now he 282 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:30.840 has a third cancer. And third cancer was in the 283 00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:34.279 pireform sinus, So the tonsils up towards the top of 284 00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:36.759 the mouth by the back of the tongue, and the 285 00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:39.799 peeriform sinus is towards the bottom, by the bottom of 286 00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:42.320 the tongue and by the voice box. And he went 287 00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:45.440 to his doctors at the biggest places in Connecticut, the 288 00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:49.799 most famous, super duper places, and they buy up seed 289 00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:53.039 his puriform sinus, and they told him that the only 290 00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:56.440 treatment he could have because he had prior radiation, would 291 00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:00.240 be a radical surgery removing his voice box and part 292 00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:03.159 of his trake and part of his neck. They were 293 00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:06.039 going to remove, do radical surgery on his neck and 294 00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:10.519 his voicebox, remove his voicebox. He would never speak again, normally, 295 00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:13.119 he would never breathe again. Normally he'd breathe through a 296 00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:15.559 little hole at the bottom of his neck. And he 297 00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:18.400 was desperate, and he came to me. He has vascular disease. 298 00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:21.960 Vascular disease is also from smoking. So if you need 299 00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:24.559 a poster boy why not to smoke? As this man 300 00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:28.400 three cancers and he came to his loved one. He 301 00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:31.039 had a girlfriend who loved him. He has one child, 302 00:17:31.799 --> 00:17:35.519 and he is an ex smoker. He's also diabetic, and 303 00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:39.559 he has this third cancer in the puriform sinus that 304 00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:42.079 spread to the nodes. And he was told it this 305 00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:46.000 super Duper Pooper Scooper Place, that he only can have 306 00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:50.839 radical surgery removing his voicebox, having a trake, so he'd 307 00:17:50.880 --> 00:17:56.160 never breathe or speak normally again. And he was desperate, 308 00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:59.400 and we got all the records together, and because we 309 00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:02.759 are able to do the delicate work that apparently was 310 00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:06.799 not thought of or was not available at super Duper General, 311 00:18:07.279 --> 00:18:10.279 we're able to ascertain that there was a significant distance 312 00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:14.240 between the radiation he had elsewhere for the tonso and 313 00:18:14.279 --> 00:18:17.359 what we would need to do to radiate his pureiform sinus. 314 00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:21.519 And he was desperate and eager to do everything he 315 00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:25.000 could to save his voicebox and to save his breathing 316 00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:28.480 and not to have radical surgery on his neck or 317 00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:32.039 on his trake or on his voice box. And he 318 00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:34.559 came and he completed therapy. We're able to treat him 319 00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:38.200 with no side effects and so incredible. We were able 320 00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:40.680 to treat him with no side effects and he's doing 321 00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:45.599 great and feeling great. When others, super duper general said impossible, 322 00:18:46.640 --> 00:18:50.119 they came to doctor Liederman and the impossible we determined 323 00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:54.079 was possible. And that's so often the case. So many 324 00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:56.480 people come and they say, oh, my doctor told me 325 00:18:56.519 --> 00:18:58.359 you can't do it, so I'm not even going to come. 326 00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:00.960 I'm not even going to come because my doctor told 327 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:02.960 him I'm not going to come. Well, this man was 328 00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:07.160 so desperate because the opposite what was available there, removing 329 00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:10.480 his voice box, putting a trake in so another breathe 330 00:19:10.599 --> 00:19:13.920 or speak again in a normal way and we're dissecting 331 00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:17.720 out his neck notes was so devastating. He was compelled 332 00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:21.359 not to believe his doctors. And it's another reason why 333 00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:24.839 it'd be great if you're interested, is to get a 334 00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:29.799 second opinion in person, and that's the only way we 335 00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:33.200 do it. Sometimes people are a little bit wanting to 336 00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:37.680 cut corners and coughing, can you treat my peer form sign? Well? No, 337 00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:40.960 it took hours and hours of us to work to 338 00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:44.680 determine look at the fields, look at the documents, and 339 00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:47.319 determine that we could safely do it. And this is 340 00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:50.039 the work we do. But for a patient, patient needs 341 00:19:50.079 --> 00:19:53.519 to show up, bring records if possible, Otherwise we will 342 00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:57.119 get the records and we review the case and we 343 00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:00.279 try to see everyone in a timely fashion, probably to 344 00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:03.200 anyone else, but it's worthwhile if you want a fresh 345 00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:06.640 second opinion, to get a fresh second opinion. If you 346 00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:08.799 want the same old opinion, then you'll be stuck with 347 00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:11.200 the same old opinion. The first man would have been 348 00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:13.759 stuck with losing his kidney. This man would have been 349 00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:16.960 stuck with losing his voicebox because he went to the 350 00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:19.960 biggest places and they told him you had to have surgery. 351 00:20:20.359 --> 00:20:23.160 And when he came to see doctor Liederman, he discovered 352 00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:27.519 that there were other options that he wasn't being told about. 353 00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:30.200 And this is the work that we do every day. 354 00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:33.279 At thirteen eighty four Broadway, Broadway through the eighth Street 355 00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:35.440 in the heart of New York City. I'm going to 356 00:20:35.480 --> 00:20:38.640 talk about another patient. This is a man who had 357 00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:42.519 a bladder cancer another story I said alluded to earlier. 358 00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:46.160 And he's a seventy six year old man. He was 359 00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:51.480 born in the Saint Petersburg Soviet Union's He is married 360 00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:54.160 He has a son. He lives in Brooklyn. He had 361 00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:55.480 blood in the year and of a year and a 362 00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:57.960 half ago. It was seen by doctors who was determined 363 00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:01.599 he had an invasive bladder cancer. And he went to 364 00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:05.960 the surgeons at Super Duper General and they started him 365 00:21:05.960 --> 00:21:10.200 on chemo and he had surgery and they removed his bladder. 366 00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:14.640 He had a prolonged recovery, got infected. He had terrible 367 00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:17.640 infection after the surgery. He lost his bladder. When they 368 00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:20.599 removed the bladder takes away not only the bladder and 369 00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:23.519 the prostate, so the sex life is capute. He was 370 00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:25.799 not able to urinate normally. He has to urinate through 371 00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:28.680 a tube or a bag. Then he got infected from 372 00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:31.559 the big operation, was in the hospital for months. Then 373 00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:35.319 he had chemotherapy. It didn't work, and then they offered 374 00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:39.000 a clinical trial, which is like experimental and he just 375 00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:40.839 didn't want to be a guinea pig. He did not 376 00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:43.960 want to volunteer. He wanted some treatment that would offer 377 00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:46.680 him a chance to work. And he came here. He 378 00:21:46.759 --> 00:21:49.720 was at one of the biggest, super most famous places 379 00:21:50.279 --> 00:21:53.400 in America and he just walked away. He had had 380 00:21:53.519 --> 00:21:56.720 surgery there, he had chemo there. He had immunotherapy there 381 00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:01.119 and nothing worked. The cancer just grew bad right whether 382 00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:04.440 they remved the bladder, came back right in the palvis, 383 00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:07.599 huge mass where the bladder used to be. Huge masses 384 00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:10.279 of cancer had spread in the pelvic area, and he 385 00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:14.000 came to us desperate for a second opinion. He did 386 00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:16.880 not want to go on a clinical trial. Clinical trials 387 00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:20.160 don't really have any chance of durability in general, or 388 00:22:20.240 --> 00:22:23.880 very small. The success of cancer patients with clinical trials 389 00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:26.720 is about five percent if you look at the data, 390 00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:31.039 meaning ninety five percent of people, there's not success. So 391 00:22:31.359 --> 00:22:33.200 why would you want to do something that is so 392 00:22:34.400 --> 00:22:37.799 odds against you. He had already had the usual treatment. 393 00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:40.519 He went to a super duper place. They removed his bladder, 394 00:22:40.519 --> 00:22:43.759 they gave him chemo, they gave real therapy. Nothing worked. 395 00:22:43.799 --> 00:22:46.400 The cancer just kept growing back and back and back. 396 00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:49.480 And he came here and we talked about all the options, 397 00:22:49.519 --> 00:22:53.119 and we talked about options that they never told him elsewhere. 398 00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:56.599 And he was treated here. He finished the treatment, We 399 00:22:56.720 --> 00:23:02.079 scanned him up and he's in remission. Already already in 400 00:23:02.119 --> 00:23:05.400 remission when he had surgery. The cancer came back when 401 00:23:05.400 --> 00:23:08.200
