This 3 minute video outlines our strategic plan to substantially reduce cancer deaths.

Strategic plan to substantially reduce cancer deaths

Video summary:

We need a strategic plan to substantially reduce cancer deaths.

• To focus our efforts, identify gaps in knowledge.

• Goal is to reduce annual cancer deaths from current 600K to 100K by 2030.

• It might fail – that may be why others have not attempted this, but I think we can make important progress towards this goal.

Two main aspects – prevention, combinations of treatment.

• Prevention: American Code Against Cancer – not controversial, find ways to better promote these activities (see http://www.natpernick.com/AmericanCod… ).

• Combinations of Treatment: New thesis – If we have 20+ partially effective therapies for a specific type of cancer, then some some subset, in combination, should be substantially effective, see: http://www.natpernick.com/Combination...

• Behavior of whole is greater than sum of behavior of parts.

• Target: primary tumor, also microenvironment, systemic networks.

• Compiling a list, see http://natpernick.com/Pancreatic%20Ca…

• Then start clinical trials, or other means of testing (animal models, cell cultures, computer simulations).
