ABSTRACT: Recently
there have been many advances in cancer treatment, however, treatment results
would be much better if clinical oncologists were
educated on the research of cancer metabolism and basic cancer immunology. Many
medical oncologists have deficiency in these areas and are devoted to treatment
protocols and totally against integrative oncology. One neglected problem is a
lack of attention to the cancer patient’s host immunity, which should be evaluated
at diagnosis. This huge barrier between integrative and conventional oncology should be
eliminated for the benefit of the cancer patient. This communication is an
attempt to resolve these important treatment details and bring awareness to
this problem.
