CANCER,AIDS,HIV'S LATEST RESEARCH

The discovery of two molecules that block endocytosis opens up the possibility of selectively preventing viruses like HIV from infecting cells and for halting the growth of cancers.According to Dr. June, the process includes drawing blood from the patient, and extracting the T-cells, at which point a modified harmless version of HIV was added to the cells, and injected back into the patients in the study.  Once back in the body, the modified cells act as “serial killers,” which attacked and destroyed at least 1,000 cancer cells in the 3 test cases.
The treatment of HIV/AIDS-related cancer depends on the type of cancer, the size and location of the tumor, whether the cancer has spread, and the person’s overall health. In many cases, a team of doctors will work with the patient to determine the best treatment plan.
AIDS-related cancer is a group of cancers that are frequently diagnosed in people with HIV/AIDS. People who do not have HIV or AIDS can certainly develop these types of cancers, however they are only referred as HIV/AIDS-related cancers when diagnosed in someone with HIV or AIDS.
The reasons why I was not imprisoned for running an open Cancer Clinic at Bracebridge, Ont., for 8 years, were:

    Because I achieved good results in animal research under the observation of medical doctors. My treatments caused a regression of the malignant growth in the mice, and prolonged life.

    Because I achieved the same results on humans, always treating with the permission of medical men of good standing, and under their observation.
In the research published Wednesday, doctors at the University of Pennsylvania say the treatment made the most common type of leukemia completely disappear in two of the patients and reduced it by 70 percent in the third. In each of the patients as much as five pounds of cancerous tissue completely melted away in a few weeks, and a year later it is still gone.
In developed countries like the United States, about 4 people in 10 with AIDS develop cancer at some time during their illness. But the cancer picture in HIV is changing. Kaposi sarcoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma have decreased as anti-HIV treatment has become more common. Effective anti-HIV treatment is one of the reasons for the decrease in some types of cancer among those with HIV.
