Transcript Treatment Options for Glioblastoma Multiforme

The Chain of Logic
► WHEN
a naturally induced vaccine occurs, the
response is powerful, immediate and of
therapeutic value – to eradication in some
cases – we call these cases “spontaneous
remissions”
► Extensive
circumstantial evidence supports this
thought
► There are soluble inhibitors of the immune response
► These inhibitors corrupt the natural endogenous anticancer vaccine process

Known Clinical Impact of
sTNFr Removal Therapy
►
6 of 16 patients had greater than 50%
tumor reduction using an ultrapheresis
(membrane-based separation) procedure
 Lentz 1989
►
5 of 9 late-stage breast cancer patient had
measurable response with 2 full remissions
 Lentz 1997
► Presently
in clinical trial in Germany
 Biopheresis Gmbh, 2009
