As Stanislaw Burzynski has shown since the late 1970s, grifters gonna grift. Always. Especially during a pandemic.https://skepticalinquirer.org/2014/03/stanislaw-burzynski-four-decades-of-an-unproven-cancer-cure/ …

$100K+ for his 'treatment' of Hunter?

Spending that 100K on CAR-T therapy for his brain tumor would make some sense, particularly if was part of a phase II study. He if looked on http://clinicaltrials.gov there would likely be some promising study he could enroll in.

Burszinski is no dummy, though. Everyone that he treats gets some form of standard therapy as well. And everyone gets some low to moderate dose of a targeted therapy: Tarceva, Sutent, etc. This makes sure that some people get a little better, just enough to advertise his RX.

Yes. I've only been writing about how Burzynski co-opted the concept of targeted therapy to justify combining his quackery (antineoplastons) with a kitchen sink cocktail of expensive targeted drugs (sold by a pharmacy he owned) for over a decade now.https://skepticalinquirer.org/2014/03/stanislaw-burzynski-four-decades-of-an-unproven-cancer-cure/ …

A couple things. First, is it an astracytoma or a Glioblastoma multiforme? For the former, you can be cured, the latter... well, hardly ever. But he is 17. Perhaps with good surgery and radiation he can be cured. 1/n

Having had surgery and then radiotherapy, he right away stands a good chance of recovery and several years of life. If he goes Bryzinski, then everyone will give Bryzinski credit for his staying alive, even though it was the surgery and radiotherapy. 2/n

What sucks is that his name doesn't pop up until he's already done something else awful.
