Reprinted with permission of Life Extension®. The Foundation's Adjuvant Cancer Treatment Protocol is for most forms of cancer. This protocol assumes that the patient's primary tumor has been eradicated, at least partially, by surgery or by some other treatment. However, it may be followed even if the primary tumor has not yet been eradicated. The following is a step-by-step treatment plan. Step One - Arrange for monthly blood tests, including Tumor marker tests. The type of cancer dictates the type of test used. Some cancers do not have a specific tumor marker test available. Immune cell subset test. Complete blood chemistry: To include all standard liver, thyroid, heart, and kidney function tests. Here are some accepted blood tumor markers for common cancers. Ovarian cancer: CA 125 Prostate cancer: PSA and prolactin Breast cancer: CA 27.29, CEA, alkaline phosphatase and prolactin (some doctors use the CA 15-3 in place of the CA 27.29) Colon, rectum, liver, stomach and other organ cancers: CEA, GGTP Pancreatic cancer CA 19.9, CEA, GGTP Leukemia, lymphoma, and Hodgkin's disease: CBC with differential, immune cell differentiation and leukemia profile Lung cancer: CEA, CA 125, alkaline phosphatase PT, PTT and D-Dimer of fibrin Step Two - Total nutritional support.
