You are still confusing absence of evidence for evidence of absence. Only 1 of the below statements are true & we might as well be honest about it: 1.We know that alkaline tx isn't beneficial 2.We know that alkaline tx are beneficial 3.We don’t know if alkaline tx is beneficial

I cannot make this any clearer to you: there is no evidence that sodium bicarbonate treats any cancer in any way. Saying "But you can't prove it false!" does not make it true, it just makes you look foolish and ignorant of how science works.

This is talking about a study regarding direct injection of sodium bicarbonate into tumours along with chemotherapy, and there was no survival advantage. Did you have a point?

I've seen this idea floated many times. How can sodium bicarb in water bypass the acidity of the stomach and exert any kind of physiologic effect?

There is actually some human evidence as well: https://elifesciences.org/articles/15691 . Guess it will not sway you. It also provides an example of how the gut can be bypassed.

The study is not very impressive, as you pointed out. Also, it wasn't blinded. That means there could have been unconscious bias in the two radiologists who assessed the enhanced versus nonenhanced areas to input into the software.
