question, cancer: why not treat the blood out of the body like a kidney dialysis, a cancer cell is different, its gene code is flawed,so why not starve or poison it, out side the body where it cant react, of a basic DNA breakdown there must be a fundamental error, find the code difference and poison the blood, if it has no energy of food it cant split and multiply, cells are living they eat,so if you poison its stomach(i know i know they dont have one)..they die out leaving a healthy cell next door, like zombie movie make the food seem like poison and bye bye zombie, or poison the healthy cell,with regard to cancer cell.sugar in gas tank..has this been looked at? poison the rest of the body to the cancer?
Because all Circulating Tumor Cells (CTC's) do not cause cancer or metastasis. Cancer cells can be in various phases of cell cycle called G, S, M etc. If the cancer cell is in resting phase called G0, it is very difficult to eliminate it. These resting cells may or may not get activated in the future. That is the reason why recurrences happen or do not happen!! Apart from Surgery as a treatment of cancer, Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy, Targeted therapy (molecular therapy) all rely on active cancer cell or a Chat Doctor. Resistance to treatment is a topic for another day! Hope the above description answers your question.
