...There is an entrepreneur who off-shored an immunotherapy program that avoids FDA slow down lane. It charges about $120K. There is a harvesting of cells which are concentrated curated. Then they are re-inserted with added recognition by the cancer cells from a patented process. I believe they are in Cancun, Mexico. I have no personal knowledge or connection. They use dendritic cells somehow

@thmssllvn There’s already a dendritic cell treatment which is FDA approved - Provenge - and available in the US.
Not really sure if Medicare and others cover it.
As of now it extends life an average of four months - hardly a cure, right? But there are those who do get years from treatment…
I think Immunocine in Cancun probably has a similar success profile and if you are desperate and have the $$, why not??
Reading the article you posted and others reminded me of the fact that cancer cells can learn to eat anything - glucose, lipids and even cellular waste products - to survive. Similarly, they learn to ‘disarm’ the dendritic cells, even the immuno enhanced ones, and render them useless.
If ever there was an entity possessing generative AI, it is definitely the cancer cell. It is truly something to marvel at, even though it is a relentless killer of so many of us…Good find.
