FWIW (and this is where I think philosophy can help with medicine), I believe evolutionary teleology, like most forms of teleology, often gets in the way of good science. Though useful as a hypothesis generating heuristic, it easily becomes a just-so story for pet theories. 1/2

Yep but tragically it seems to be a pretty successful marketing campaign. Multiple pts have died horrific deaths at that quack clinic.

Yes, one patient given ‘the fit to fly home’ (after treatment) from Istanbul by this clinic, refused on flight by airport staff as obviously so unwell. Very sadly, patient died at the airport

There are a couple of case reports of GBM that do the same thing, one of which came out recently. Report results as something notable when no different than what would be expected. Hard to imagine how the authors/journal editors justified publication.

Actually path CR rates are more in the range of 40-55% for neoadjuvant chemotherapy with triple negative breast cancer, based on several large contemporary randomized trials.

That sounds more like the pCR rate for hormone receptor-negative/HER2-positive breast cancer treated neoadjuvantly with chemotherapy plus trastuzumab and pertuzumab, which can be as high as 50-60%.

And there has been diddly squat of an update on this patient since. Considering this clinic still have video testimonials on its website & FB for treated patients who died shortly after the recordings is somewhat ‘odd’
