Where Can I Find a Doctor That Treats Cancer With High Dose Vitamin C?
Question by quinidine: Where can I find a doctor that treats cancer with high dose vitamin C?
my mother-in-law has stage 4 stomach cancer. I read somewhere that high dose IV vitamin C might help. It’s a long shot but I guess it wouldn’t hurt. Does anyone know where I could obtain this in southern California area?

I treated myself and cured cancer without meds. I could tell you what I took, it’s all natural and easy to get, but I don’t want to make it public. It might be against the rules. Send me a mssage if you want to know.

Hi – we did a search on the Internet for “alternative cancer treatments”, “IV theraphy”, etc and started calling the doctors from there.
You can also check the back of alternative cancer books at the bookstore and most will have practitioner listings in the back.
We are in NJ so I can’t really help with your area – try a search though.
Also try this site:

but don’t limit yourself to the responses, not many docs get listed.
Good luck

Have her doctor get in contact with Cancer Treatment Centers of America since they are conducting a legitimate Clinical Trial to test this theory. She has nothing to lose and she may end up helping to determine if this treatment will benefit cancer patients. You need to check the eligibility requirements:
Clinical Trials: A Phase I Study of High-Dose IV Vitamin C Treatment
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct/show/NCT00441207?order=1
“This study is currently recruiting patients.
Verified by Cancer Treatment Centers of America March 2007
Purpose
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Vitamin C given by injection into the vein.
The second and third purpose of conducting this study is to observe any evidence of tumor response to the Vitamin C and compare the level of fatigue (weakness), pain control, ability to do things and your quality of life, before and after Vitamin C is given.
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Non-Randomized, Open Label, Uncontrolled, Single Group Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Phase I Study of High-Dose IV Vitamin C Treatment in Patients With Solid Tumors
Further study details as provided by Cancer Treatment Centers of America:
Primary Outcomes: Evaluate the safety and tolerability of high dose IV Vitamin C as a monotherapy; Evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of IV Vitamin C at varing doses.
Secondary Outcomes: Determine if vitamin C accumulates with repeated daily therapy by measuring peak and nadir levels.; Evaluate patient quality of life; Observe patients for clinical and radiological evidence of anti-tumor activity at the end of treatment.
Expected Total Enrollment: 18
Study start: August 2006; Expected completion: August 2009
Preclinical studies of pharmacologic doses of vitamin C (ascorbic acid, ascorbate) have shown significant anticancer effects in animal models and tissue culture investigations including cytotoxic effects in certain cancer cell lines at micromolar to millimolar concentrations.
Early clinical studies have shown that intravenous and oral doses of vitamin C may improve symptoms and prolong survival in terminal cancer patients. More recent double-blind placebo-controlled studies have shown that oral adminstration of vitamin C provides no benefit to cancer patients. Conversely, intravenous vitamin C administration raises plasma concentrations as high as 14 mM/L, and concentrations of 1-5 mM/L have been found to be selectively cytoxic to tumor cells in vitro.
The proposed Phase I trial with vitamin c should achieve millimolar concentrations of vitamin C that have been shown to kill tumor cells in vitro. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD), PK, possible drug accumulation with repeated dosing, quality of life, pain response, fatigue status,and hints of efficacy in patients with advanced cancer will be examined.
