Cancer recurrence prevention program was scientifically carried out by utilizing dynamic tumor marker combination assay

Background: Standard therapy are saying that cancer recurrence prevention is difficult. Shelton L.N. reported that cancer cell is grown up in the presence of both glucose and glutamine. So, dietary energy restriction (DER) is useful tool of recurrence prevention. As the second item, I have exploited herbal medicine (Sun Advance) which inhibit the hallmarks of carcinogenesis. Now I have employed detoxifying therapy. As the 4th method, high dose of vitamin C therapy which promotes the increasing of hydro-peroxide in cancer cell. I applied these 4 combinations of intervention method on the high risk of postoperative cancer patients. Method: Among 500 post-operative patients, I have selected 131 candidates who were classified into tumor stage IV and tumor stage V. Among them, 104 members are intervened, and 27 patients are classified into control group. Results: In control group, 55% have tendency to aggravating change. Among intervened 104 members, 7.7% are not prevented. *Correspondence to: Tsuneo Kobayashi, MD, PhD, International cancer prevention center, Chiba city, Mihama-ku Takasu 3-21-1, Japan, Tel: +043-3062611; Fax: +043-279-4211; E-mail: ft1992@vega.ocn.ne.jp


Introduction
They said that there is no correct barometer for cancer prevention and recurrence prevention. So as to solve this problem, we have reported tumor marker combination assay (TMCA) in Cancer (1994) [1]. By utilizing TMCA, I have classified cancer risk assessment into 5 tumor stages among 500 postoperative cancer patients and I have selected 131 high risk group, who are classified into TSIV and TSV. I have intervened by 4 methods against high risk groups. Shelton LN et al. [2][3][4] reported that VM-M3 cancer cell is grown up in the presence of both glucose and glutamine. So, wise dietary energy restriction (DER) has induced from this knowledge as the nutritional counter measure for cancer prevention [5][6][7][8]. Youngman LD reported that the combination of carcinogen and high protein diet highly promote the carcinogenesis. As the second item, I have exploited herbal medicine (Sun Advance) [9][10] which inhibit selectively mitochondrial oxygen respiration on cancer cell and which inhibit its hallmarks of carcinogenesis of culture cell. Now I have employed detoxifying therapy which is utilized in old type of Japanese therapy as CAM, which is mainly composed of Nishi Type (Orthopedic Traction Apparatus: WA: 57B (686) Yamato (KK, Ehime prefecture, Japan) of exercise and sweeping of intestinal canal which eliminate immunosuppressive substances from bloods and elevate immune activity utilizing detoxifying medicine. As the fourth method, high dose of vitamin C therapy will inhibit angiogenesis of cancer tissue and promote increasing of hydro-peroxide in cancer cell [11][12].
As for cancer recurrence prevention, 4 types of intervened method are prepared and applied to 104 candidates: DER, high dose of vitamin C (20g), Herbal medicine (Sun Advance, Chiba city, Japan) and detoxification therapy are applied step by step. As to herbal medicine, SA 1.6g was prescribed daily. As for control group (herbal medicine 5g as Kudzu Decoction) prescription was applied as placebo. TMCA examination was carried out in everyone month and checked their risk assessment.
Detoxifying therapy is composed of Nishi type [Orthopedic Traction Apparatus : WA: 57B(686) Yamato(KK, Ehime prefecture, Japan)] of exercise for 20 minutes and detoxifying therapy medicine for 6 hours which is sweeping of intestinal canal which eliminate detoxifying medicine [intake of the mixture of citric acid (12g), lactulose ( Kowa, Tokyo) (24g), magnesium hydroxide(30g) and 50 ml of water], total body massage, hot and cold water dipping each time for 1 minute alternatively, 7 time repeating) stimulation for autonomic nervous system and sauna bathing at 39℃ for 20 minutes.
At first, I must survey the effectiveness of detoxifying therapy. The following data show that each 3 time of detoxifying therapy decrease the value of CEA, ferritin and alpha (α)-globulin as alpha(α)-immunoregulatory protein in the serum and increase immune activity as the results. T cell number is increasing from 1252 to 2184.

Results
At first, I must survey the effectiveness of detoxifying therapy. The following data show that each 3 time of detoxifying therapy decrease the value of CEA, ferritin and alpha(α)-globulin in the serum and increase immune activity. T cell number is increasing from 1252 to 2184.
The effectiveness of detoxifying therapy was showed on 57 years female. (Table 1) that the correlation between immune-suppressive substances and immune activity.
Secondly, intervened treatment group were examined by TMCA in every 1 month. When effectiveness is weak, another intervened method is added step by step. (Figure 1) The results for 3 years are as follows.
As to control group, aggravation: 55.5%, no change: 33.3% As to the intervened group; aggravation group: 7.7%, no change: 13.5% Thirdly, among them, I have randomly selected one postoperative colon cancer patient (72 yrs.) and followed for 12 years. In this patient, I have intervened by 2 methods: herbal medicine (Sun Advance) and detoxifying treatment therapy. When risk assessment by TMCA become higher risk, detoxifying therapy (in another name is Refreshment therapy) or mix-intervention of herbal medicine (Sun Advance) and detoxifying therapy ( Figure 2) were applied. This patient could be prevented his cancer recurrence by these intervened methods for 12 years.
Among the postoperative cancer patients (131), we have carried out intervention treatment by 4 methods which promote natural healing power against higher risk group. We have succeeded in cancer recurrence prevention program in 93%.

Discussion
As cancer tissue will develop just look like fetus development, we should carry out suitable cancer recurrence prevention program by means which solve cancer nutritional control, solve lowering immune activity, inhibit cancer angiogenesis and solve mitochondria respiratory dysfunction because neoplasm is appeared by immunological decreasing disease. Before clinical neoplasm will be appeared, complementary and alternatively medicine or holistic medicine would be effective for cancer recurrence prevention. In this paper I have failed cancer recurrence prevention in 7.7%. But as to this 7.7%, I have applied immune-thermo-chemotherapy (ITC) [13] on those who have not succeeded in cancer recurrence prevention program after consent. Utilizing ITC, I have succeeded in cancer recurrence prevention in 99 %( not published).
In ordinal standard western medicine, 60~70% of cancer patients would be recurred up to now. So, my reported recurrence prevention programs are good intervention which are depended upon the activation of natural healing power different from chemotherapy and radiotherapy. We should change the treatment not cancer attacking   invasive treatment but contributed to promote natural healing power.
Most of cancer sacrifices are derived from cancer recurrence in 60~70%. If our cancer recurrence prevention program is applied to the postoperative patients with high risk, cancer patients will be secured.
