Hey Petey!
“I am ready to sit on a stage with Eric in front of a large crowd and debate this matter with you ANYTIME YOUR READY.”
Petey!, responds:

“WHY DID 230 CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL’S TURN DOWN BURZYNSKI’S PHASE 3 BRAINSTEM GLIOMA TRIAL???”
“The answer is in your own post.”
“They were not convinced the treatment was likely to provide benefit, so why on earth would they subject children to the side effects, infection risk and other known problems with ANP treatment?”
“Unlike Burzynski, they seem to have followed the dictates of the Helsinki declaration.”
guychapman, HOW has Burzynski NOT “followed the dictates of the Helsinki declaration.”?
YOU remind me of this randy hinton comment:
“The hospital’s don’t seem to want to discuss this matter publically.”
And neither do YOU

“I am thrilled with this piece.”
“My website, Doubtful News, was also a target of the Burzynski PR machine when they tried to shut down critique and questioning.”
Sharon Hill, I’m “doubtful” your website was worth the trouble
But look on the bright side
You just got free “Pub” in a BIASED CENSORING publication
It’ll be something you can tell the grandkids about
“Very pleased that this part of the story is getting out.”
“The bottom line is, there would be no problems if the clinic just met the same standards expected from all clinics – you follow the federal and state rules and you have evidence to back up your claims.”
“The fact that they have to retaliate the way they do is GOOD evidence they have nothing better to show.”
Sharon Hill, and I see that:
“The fact that you have to retaliate the way you do is GOOD evidence you have nothing better to show.”
As in, NO “citation(s),” NO “reference(s),” and / or NO “link(s)” that support your claims

“Mr. Burzynski is a fraud, a thief, and a scoundrel.”
ovalwooki, so, like YOU ?
“When people are at their lowest, facing death for themselves or a Loved one, he holds out a lie disguised as hope, takes every dime from them that he can, and in some cases even threatens with lawsuits the very people he’s just ripped off.”
ovalwooki, and we should just take your word for it, because, WHY?
“He threatens innocent people who call him out on his horrible record of successful ” cures “ .”
ovalwooki, WHAT is:
“his horrible record of successful ” cures“ ?
“As far as I know, he’s cured no one, ever, and there is no validity to him or his methods, at all.”
ovalwooki, exactly WHAT does:
“As far as I know”
MEAN ?
“He clearly defines what is most flawed with our system of healthcare, here in America.”
ovalwooki, “clearly defines what is most flawed with our system of” yellow journalism, here in America

“In the 1950’s, Congressman Charles Tobey enlisted Benedict Fitzgerald, an investigator for the Interstate Commerce Commission, to investigate allegations of conspiracy* and monopolistic practices on the part of orthodox medicine.”
“This came about as the result of the son of Senator Tobey who developed cancer and was given less than two years to live by orthodox medicine.”
“That is when he learned of alleged conspiratorial practices on the part of orthodox medicine.”
“The final report clearly indicated there was indeed a conspiracy to monopolize the medical and drug industry and to eliminate alternative options.”

“That was 60 years ago.”
“And it was not adopted as generally plausible even then.”
guychapman, so, what has changed since then, because there are definitely still dissimulators like YOU?
“By peerless I mean risible, of course.”
guychapman, so, like your comments, right?

“It seems to me there are nly too possibilities here:”
JGC2013, “nly” ?
“1) Antineoplastons don’t work and after two decades and 60-plus uncompleted and unplublished ‘clinical trials’ Burzinsky is fully aware that there is no evidence antineoplastons showing they are effective at treating advanced cancers, but despite this continues to charge patients to receive antineoplaston treatment for financial gain.”
JGC2013, THAT certainly explains THIS:
Burzynski – The Antineoplaston Randomized Japan Phase II Clinical Trial Study:
https://stanislawrajmundburzynski.wordpress.com/2013/03/28/burzynski-the-antineoplaston-randomized-japan-phase-ii-clinical-trial-study
“In which case he’s a fraud, exploiting desparate people for his own personal gain.”
JGC2013, THAT certainly explains THIS:
“Orac” and the “Oracolytes” Cult of Misinformation:
https://stanislawrajmundburzynski.wordpress.com/2013/04/29/orac-and-the-oracolytes-cult-of-misinformation/
“Or 2) antineoplastons DO work, and Burzinsky does have clinical evidence demonstrating efficacybut rather than publish the results of trials (allowing independent oncologists can first confirm and then adopt antineoplatosn therapy) he’s chosen not to publish in order to maintain a lucrative monopoly on antineoplaston herapy, offering it only to the small subset of cancer patients who afford to pay exorbitant fees to be treated at his clinic and effectively denying millions of other cancer patients access to a cure for their cancer.”
JGC2013, THAT certainly explains THIS:

“In which case he’s a monster.”
JGC2013, this is NOT a Rob Zombie film

By a curious coincidence, several senior figures in the pharmaceutical industry today gave evidence to the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee on the specific issue of publication before and after the event for clinical trials and data, and discuss the obligations of those conducting trials.

guychapman, thank you for keeping us appraised of what’s going in the United Kingdom, home to Kings, Queens, Dukes, Dutchesses, Earls, Counts, Countesses, Knights, Dragons, Wizards, etc., and that fairyland you’re living in
"Figures as low as 70-odd percent and as high as 90+ percent."
guychapman, just in case you have NOT noticed, Burzynski is in the United States of America

guychapman, YOU have “zero percent” acceptability or desirability, oddly.

“Hey Peter Lipson, while you were at the Cleveland Clinic, did you speak to Dr. Bruce Cohen, the director of Neuro-oncology?”
“Because he is in “Burzynski Part 1″ and was Paul Michaels neuro-oncologist and watch Paul’s brain tumor “disappear” (after previously telling Paul’s parents “this is the worst case we’ve ever seen”.”
“Dr. Cohen is in the “trailer #2″ from Burzynski, Part 1 also.”
“I think Bruce is still there, perhaps you need to give old Bruce Cohen a call ;)”

Dr. Cohen joined Cleveland Clinic’s department of Neurology, in Cleveland, Ohio , in 1989

“You don’t get it do you?”
“Science does not work by assuming that single voices in the wilderness somehow counter the consensus view.”
“The consensus of informed opinion is that Burzynski’s treatment is unproven and not terribly likely to become proven, not least because his science appears incompetent.”
guychapman, are you indicating that Dr. Cohen is NOT competent, and misdiagnosed his patient?
