Slide 1 : Treating Primary Peritoneal Cancer with Bovine Cartilage, Coenzyme Q10, Wheat Grass, and Other Vitamins and Minerals
Slide 2 : ABSTRACT The accepted postsurgical first-line therapy for primary peritoneal cancer has been a regime of chemotherapy. This presentation reports the case of an 89-year-old female who refused chemotherapy but accepted a nutritional alternative. Results after more than 4 years of the nutritional regime were encouraging with regards to objective and subjective measures
Slide 3 : INTRODUCTION Primary peritoneal cancer traditionally has been treated with surgical debulking, possibly followed with gene or hormonal therapy, immuniology, radiology, and conventional and nonconventional chemotherapy. Adverse side effects and the lack of long term success have encouraged alternative and complementary treatments. This presentation reports the results of a case study involving a combination of bovine cartilage, coenzyme Q-10, and wheat grass.
Slide 4 : Theoretical Background – Bovine Cartilage The glycosaminoglycans and breakdown product content in bovine cartilage are thought to stimulate the immune system and kill cancer cells,. The chondrocytes in cartilage cells are thought to produce one or more substances that inhibit blood vessel formation (angiogenesis).
Slide 5 : Theoretical Background – CoQ10 CoQ10 acts as an antioxidant and is thought to stimulate the immune. Analogs of CoQ10 may function as antimetabolites to disrupt normal biochemical reactions that are required for cell growth or survival.
Slide 6 : Theoretical Background – Wheat Grass Wheat grass contains all amino acids (except tryptophan), minerals and trace minerals, essential fatty acids, vitamins A and C, iron, the B vitamins, vitamin K, and chlorophyll (which is thought to be an immune system booster and antioxidant. Wheat grass also contains superoxide dismutase (SOD), P4D1, and mucopolysaccharides that are thought to inhibit cell mutation and expose cancer cells to attack by the immune system.
Slide 7 : Patient Background 89 year female with weight loss, low energy, severe abdominal pain, and abnormal CA 125 test score of 1040 Left and right salpingo-oophorectomy, hysterectomy, and omentectomy were performed Postsurgical pathology diagnosis was high grade carcinoma
Slide 8 : ANATOMICAL AND SURGICAL PATHOGY Left salpingo-oophorectomy diagnosis: papillary serous carcinoma, poorly differentiated Hysterectomy and right salpingo-oophorectomy diagnosis: cervix – no pathological diagnosis and corpus uteri basal endometrium with atropy and polyp, endometrial, benign Omentectomy, peritoneum, and adipose tissue diagnosis: adenocarcinoma, metastatic, poorly differentiated on surface and with invasion
Slide 9 : Cytopathology Specimen: Peritoneal fluid = wnl Specimen: Peritoneal fluid (ascites): Malignant cells seen in peritoneum and adipose tissue of the omentum received from an immediately subsequent omentectomy are not seen in this thin prep or cell block preparation (s-00-12479, slide 3-A1)
Slide 10 : COMBINATION NUTRITIONAL THERAPY Patient refused chemotherapy but accepted an ongoing nutritional therapy at home with no other interventions involved Bovine cartilage, 9 g daily, 3 750-mg capsules, q.I.d. Coenzyme Q-10, 150 mg, 1 capsule q.d. Wheat grass, 2 g, 1 500-mg q.I.d.
Slide 11 : Other Vitamins and Mineral Elements Other minerals were involved in the combination nutritional therapy. Calcium with vitamin D, 500 mg of calcium with 200 IU of vitamin D, 1 tablet q.d. Potassium, 99 mg, 1 caplet q.d. Magnesium with zinc, 400 mg of magnesium with 15 mg of zinc, 1 tablet q.d. Multiple vitamin and mineral supplement, 1 tablet q.d.
Slide 12 : OBJECTIVE RESULTS CA 125 test scores over a 3-year period ranging from fluctuating between 5 and 11 with last reading at 8 Various imaging studies over a 3 year period negative for recurrence or metastasis
Slide 13 : Subjective Results Normal energy levels Weight maintenance General good health Sense of well being Period of monitoring by family physician: approximately 4.5 years
