California Medical center (San Fransico)Promising clinical trial

Hi all,

My friend found this and I am passing this to all . We are still in our struggle (Glio IV. )Two researchers  at the CPMC, have been studying the effects of a derivitive from cannibus. Cannabidiol has been use to treat nausea etc. for years. They have found it ( in higher doses) to stop the spread of cancer cells particurally in breast and brain cancer. Their study was released in 2007 and and update on the research released 9-19-12. They want to start human trials. Please read article and go to the medical center web page for further info. I know some of you are good at research, if anyone finds out any more info. please pass on. Many of us are in the fight of our or our love ones life! 

Peace to all.

Jackie

The link you provided didn't work so I've included them below.  I had to hold my nose to go to the huffington post, but did it just for you.  The important things to take from this study so far is that they are concentrating on breast cancer and hoping it may relate to other cancers such as those affecting the brain.  However, success in the petri dish and in mice often does not end up resulting in similar gains when it comes to humans.  The research work also appears to be concentrating on metastasis which is generally not an issue for primary brain cancers.  There is also the highly evasive issue of getting past the blood-brain barrier in humans to deliver the therapy.  There wasn't any detail at all related to brain cancers such as GBM so it's difficult to judge just how effective this research will be for brain cancer.  However, it is an interesting concept and worth watching.  Of particular note, the researcher makes clear that simply lighting up a "bone", a "joint", is not effective and does nothing to stop the cancer.  If only it were that simple.

I don't like the H-Post either. As a genuine liberal, I object to fake liberals like Ms. Huffington, but my main objection to the site is that it takes about five minutes to load a story on dial-up.

All I was trying to do was pass on information. It will be the last time.

Information is always a good thing. The more informed the better.

I appreciate any and all information i can get my hands on. Thanks jackie!

 

First time I herad about it was by an east coast dr and DNA researcher I then told my NO and said another patient was trying on an edible cookie presentation it and that some info suggested its benefits so I have tried it on the popcorn presentation and plan to try it in a convenient way that is not as sweet my NO did warn me about dosing it because its probable side effects since I had never tried it before in any presentaTION

Thanks Jackie! Please keep on sharing!!! I've heard about this research and am excited to see results. Hoping for the best. Your thread prompted more research on my part. There is some promising aspects to their studies and I am hoping it proves to be enough to make it to the clinical trial stage. :)

Oops, (no edit button*smile*) further reading says they are already doing clinical trials with this but are in the phase 1 of the clinical trial. Saw this on another thread discussing the matter ;) here's the link that someone posted that I thought was informative (thanks person that Posted this for sharing) ;) http://health.ucsd.edu/news/releases/Pages/2012-09-25-cannab

Gosh, sorry for the repetitive posts but the link that I posted didn't seem to work, hmmm... Lets try it again, if this one doesn't work then I've failed (not very computer savy) ha http://health.ucsd.edu/news/releases/Pages/2012-09-25-cannab
