They started off by introducing themselves as The Three Horsemen of the Apocalypse - what could possibly go wrong!! Declan couldn't resist the opportunity to invite three very eminent radiation oncologists into the studio when they all happened to be in Melbourne, even if he was particularly outnumbered while Renu was away! Vedang Murthy (Tata Memorial, India), Andrew Loblaw (Sunnybrook Hospital, Canada), and Sarat Chander (Peter Mac, Melbourne) are all highly specialised in prostate radiation, so Declan invited them into the GU Cast studio to pick their brains on three big areas in prostate radiation:1. Hypofractionation in 2025 - Who and How?2. Who needs ADT and for how long when having prostate radiation?3. Metastasis-directed therapy for oligometastatic disease - is there any point??Tune in to find out how Urologist Declan Murphy fared up against these three Radiation Oncologists!!!

One of Europe's leading oncologists has spoken to FRANCE 24 about how huge advances in technology are helping women who have and are recovering from breast cancer. Doctor Joana Ribeiro from the Gustave Roussy Institute says that, for example, a new AI-based tool is allowing more personalised treatment. She says that despite the advances, there is still so much still to learn about breast cancer. She spoke to us in Perspective.
In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with Dr. Carol Haddad, integrative oncologist and founder of Integrative Cancer Care Australia (ICCA), to explore a powerful truth: the patient is the creator of their own medicine. We talk about cancer as a catalyst, the evolving role of integrative care, and the importance of love as the medicine - not romantic love, but the consciousness of love that transforms the healing journey. Together, we reflect on the paradox of will and surrender, the unseen power of bedside manner as energetic transmission, and a beautiful new concept: remission of the mind where the mind learns to live in harmony with a healed body. This conversation is for those navigating cancer, their loved ones, and the medical professionals ready to hear a new paradigm in healing. May it ripple out as medicine you didn't know you were seeking.

Doctors often use euphemisms to dance around the 'C' word. But for oncologist Dr Ranjana Srivastava, how you talk to someone with cancer goes beyond "shadows, lumps and lesions". It's all about compassion and clarity, even when honesty is difficult.Ranjana Srivastava was a young doctor in regional Australia, accompanying her consultant on his late night rounds when she heard a patient say something that stopped Ranjana in her tracks.It was in that moment that she finally knew what her speciality was going to be: oncology. Ranjana now works in Melbourne as an oncologist and an author.She often writes about the need for clarity and compassion in doctor-patient conversations, to deliver good news, bad news and everything that falls between.Ranjana had her own experience of being at the receiving end of devastating news when she was pregnant with twins.Ranjana has carried the lesson she received from her own doctor forward, into her work as an oncologist, where bearing witness to the attitudes of her patients has changed the way she sees the world and has helped put her own life in perspective.Further informationRanjana's latest book, Every Word Matters, is published by Simon & Schuster.She has published seven books about cancer and end of life care, including A Better Death, Tell Me the Truth, Dying for a Chat, So It's Cancer: Now What, and After Cancer: A Guide to Living Well.Ranjana also writes a regular column for The Guardian.In 2017, Ranjana was awarded an Order of Australia medal for her work as an oncologist and in improving doctor-patient communication.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris.

Misinformation can spread quickly, especially when it comes to health care. Lately, some cancer patients have been asking about the use of Ivermectin, a drug designed to treat parasites, as a potential cancer treatment. Bayan Al-Share, M.D., Oncologist at Monument Health Cancer Care Institute, joins host Mark Houston to address where this idea came from, what the science actually says and how to evaluate sources of medical information. Dr. Al-Share also shares how she handles these conversations in the exam room and what patients should know before considering alternative therapies. Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textWhat happens when a veteran oncologist pulls back the curtain on cancer treatment? Dr. Orlando Silva doesn't just challenge conventional wisdom—he shatters it with decades of clinical experience and a passionate commitment to patient-centered care.Cancer is fundamentally a metabolic disease, yet this critical fact remains largely overlooked in standard oncology practice. "Traditional oncologists believe you can eat whatever you want," Dr. Silva explains, revealing how dietary interventions like ketogenic diets can starve cancer cells while nourishing patients. This represents just one of many blind spots in conventional treatment approaches.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Dr. Silva discusses powerful complementary treatments including ivermectin, fenbendazole, and mebendazole—medications with multiple mechanisms of action that can enhance chemotherapy's effectiveness while reducing side effects. He shares the remarkable story of Joe Tippins, who eliminated over 90 metastases using fenbendazole after being told nothing more could be done for his small cell lung cancer. When Tippins returned to his oncologist cancer-free, the doctor's response spoke volumes: "I don't believe in what you're doing, but don't stop."Dr. Silva doesn't hold back when addressing the systemic issues plaguing modern medicine. He describes a "military system" where physicians follow orders rather than pursue optimal patient outcomes, and where pharmaceutical sponsorships influence treatment protocols. The human element of medicine has been systematically removed, with doctors "running like rats on a treadmill" given just 15 minutes per patient. "It takes the human out of it," he laments, emphasizing how true healing requires doctors to "cross the room, put your hand on the patient's shoulder" and show them "I'm in the ring with you."Looking toward a brighter future for cancer care, Dr. Silva envisions an integrated approach combining conventional treatments with nutritional interventions, lifestyle modifications, and alternative therapies. His message to patients navigating cancer today is clear: explore complementary approaches that might enhance your primary therapy's effectiveness, even if it means doing so without your primary oncologist's knowledge.Join us for this eye-opening conversation that will forever change how you think about cancer treatment, patient advocacy, and the courage required to step outside medical dogma in pursuit of healing.

This highlights the persistent need for more effective and durable treatment strategies. CELMoDs are a class of drugs that enhance T cell potency, promote combinational synergy with other antimyeloma agents, and rejuvenate exhausted T cells to improve antimyeloma effects even in T cell-exhausted settings. Dive into this series of activities to discover the potential role of these novel agents across lines of therapy and how they contribute to improved adherence and survival outcomes.
Send us a textProudly produced by The Oncology NetworkWhen does aggressive cancer treatment shift from beneficial to harmful? This powerful conversation between Professor Nathan Cherny and Professor Christopher Jackson tackles one of oncology's most challenging ethical dilemmas – overtreatment at the end of life.Drawing on his extensive experience and research, Professor Cherny illuminates the complex factors driving excessive treatment, from departmental culture to cognitive biases. "Oncologists need to learn not only when to treat, but when not to treat," he emphasises, highlighting how treatment decisions for poor-performance status patients with resistant disease require particular scrutiny. The discussion reveals eye-opening research showing patients might consider additional treatment worthwhile only if it provided 12-18 months of quality life – far beyond what late-line therapies typically deliver.Throughout the conversation, both oncologists acknowledge the delicate balance between appropriate intervention and knowing when to step back. Professor Cherny offers practical guidance for reframing hope beyond treatment response and recognising that courage exists not only in pursuing another treatment but also in saying "enough." This nuanced exploration of patient-centred decision-making provides a valuable perspective for clinicians, patients, and families navigating cancer's most difficult moments.Join our community at oncologynetwork.com.au for more insightful discussions and subscribe to our weekly publication The Oncology Newsletter to stay informed on the latest advancements in cancer care.The Oncology Podcast - An Australian Oncology Perspective

The Cancer Therapies You're Not Being Told About This episode goes straight into the treatments that rarely make it past the walls of a conventional oncology clinic. I'm talking red light therapy, chlorine dioxide solution (CDS), and even urine therapy, modalities backed by real science, used around the world, and showing results in cancer recovery, thyroid health, autoimmune conditions, wound healing, autism, chronic fatigue, and more. I'm joined by Jonathan Otto, researcher, educator, and producer of groundbreaking health documentaries who pulls back the curtain on what's working for patients right now. He shares case studies you won't hear in a standard medical appointment, breaks down the research hiding in plain sight, and explains exactly how these approaches fit into real-world healing protocols. We're also taking on the myths, the misinformation, and the reasons therapies with Nobel Prize-level science behind them are still being ignored. This is a candid, fact-driven conversation designed to help you see your options clearly, so you can make informed decisions about your health without limits placed on you by outdated systems. If you've been told there's only one path forward, this episode will give you a much wider view. Connect with Jonathan Otto: Instagram: @jonno.otto

Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that can interfere with the complex system that produces and interacts with our hormones. Research suggests they can affect the reproductive system, our kidneys, and even increase our risk of cancer. There are over 1,000 types of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, according to some estimates, and we are exposed to them daily through things like kitchen utensils and makeup. So how worried should we be about inevitable exposure?Host Elahe Izadi speaks with oncologist Dr. Mikkael Sekeres about the connection between endocrine disruptors and cancer. Dr. Sekeres also shares his advice on steps he takes to avoid these chemicals–and how he puts the risks into perspective.Today's show was produced by Thomas Lu, with help from Rennie Svirnovskiy, who also mixed the episode.

For many cancer patients, treatment can be an isolating and overwhelming journey; marked by fear, fatigue, and the constant burden of travel. But what if chemotherapy could be delivered at home? In this episode, our host Cathy Wurzer explores the growing movement to bring cancer care into the comfort of patients' homes with Dr. Roxana Dronca, Hematologist & Oncologist at Mayo Clinic and Dr. Arif Kamal, Chief Patient Officer at American Cancer Society. Could this shift not only ease the experience but also improve outcomes?

We think we're so sure about what we know about science - did you know, though, that there are 48 catalogued forms of bias? There exists, and I was excited to learn this, a catalogue of bias that is constantly tweaked and updated. Which leads me to today's show with Dr Lewis Ehrlich - one of our most popular guests over the years. When I saw Lewis had been accepted into a one-of-a-kind postgraduate program in Evidence-Based Medicine and Healthcare at Oxford University last year, I was already excited about this conversation I knew we'd have for the show once he completed it!What's brilliant about this program is that you come together with people from outside your medical field - neurosurgeons, Oncologists, Orthopaedic Surgeons, Cardiologists, Public Health PhDs, and general practitioners- to conduct, analyse, critique, and improve scientific literature. It was a tremendous honour to be accepted into and learn at this historic University.We explore science in today's show, both generally and as it relates to Lewis's field of practice, dentistry. You'll hear about:Bias and how we both form them and become more aware of them in our own lives as we explore topicsNuance - it's all about who you are and what you need, and our system isn't built for thatThe need to leave our black and white frameworks in medical practice, while also not throwing everything we know out the windowThe fine line between curiosity and analysis, and suspicion and mistrustFluoride as an example - not always essential, not always ‘bad' either if you consider all relevant factors in a ‘to fluoridate or not' debateNew frontiers in dental healthWhat we know for sure helps us keep excellent oral health overall.Enjoy the show.

Up to 40% of cancers are attributable to modifiable risk factors, including diet, obesity, alcohol, tobacco use, and physical inactivity. The WCRF estimates that about 1 in 3 cancer cases in high-income countries could be prevented by healthier diets, maintaining a healthy weight, and regular physical activity. And according to the National Cancer Institute in the US, physical inactivity is a recognized risk factor for colon, breast, and endometrial cancer.But even with the best intentions there's a lot of confusion around lifestyle and cancer. One day it's red meat, the next it's microwaves. We hear about them in headlines, social media posts or passed around in conversation, which can make it really hard to know what matters most.I'm joined today by Professor Robert Thomas, an NHS oncologist and researcher who's spent decades studying how lifestyle (from food and movement to gut health and supplements) affects cancer risk and recovery.

In this episode Dr. Karlfeldt interviews Dr Eric Schoen about. The conversation begins with Dr. Karlfeldt highlighting the challenging situation many cancer patients face when their oncologists advise against using complementary therapies alongside conventional treatments. Dr. Schoen discusses the importance of patients having informed conversations with both their oncologists and integrative providers, noting that 35-44% of cancer patients incorporate integrative therapies, sometimes without their oncologist's knowledge. Dr. Schoen emphasizes that patients should work with specialists who understand the complexities of integrative cancer care rather than navigating treatment alone. He shares a case study about a patient who experienced complications from excessive green tea consumption during treatment, illustrating how even beneficial natural substances can interfere with cancer therapies when used improperly. This highlights the importance of proper guidance from knowledgeable practitioners who understand potential interactions. The discussion covers safe supplements that can be taken during conventional cancer treatments when properly supervised. Dr. Schoen recommends foundational supplements like modified citrus pectin (which binds to galectin-3 and prevents cancer progression), Magnolia extract (which helps reduce angiogenesis), and vitamin D (crucial for immune function). He also discusses the importance of trace minerals like zinc and beneficial mushrooms such as Turkey Tail, Reishi, and Cordyceps for supporting immune function. Throughout the conversation, both doctors stress the importance of patients advocating for themselves while seeking multiple opinions to make informed decisions about their treatment. They highlight how integrative therapies, when properly administered, can enhance the effectiveness of conventional treatments and support patients throughout their cancer journey, potentially improving outcomes and quality of life.Dr. Eric Schoen emphasizes that 35-44% of cancer patients incorporate integrative therapies alongside conventional treatments, some with their oncologist's knowledge and others without disclosing it.Patients should work with specialists who understand integrative oncology rather than navigating treatment alone, as the complexity of cancer care requires expertise to avoid harmful interactions between therapies.Modified citrus pectin is highlighted as a foundational supplement that binds to galectin-3, helping prevent cancer progression and the formation of new blood vessels that feed tumors.Green tea consumption requires careful monitoring during cancer treatment as it can potentially interfere with certain treatments by affecting estrogen metabolism and causing bioaccumulation of stress molecules.Mushrooms like Turkey Tail, Reishi, and Cordyceps offer significant immune support during cancer treatment, while also helping to reduce fatigue commonly experienced by patients.----Grab my book A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health Threat - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2----Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

Today in the vet’s office, Dr. Josie Horchak welcomes her longtime friend and vet school classmate, Dr. Daniela Korec, a veterinary oncologist with a deep passion for helping pets and their people navigate the cancer journey. From the most common types of cancer in pets to the misconceptions around prevention, Daniela and Josie dive into it all — including the hot-button topic of using ivermectin and supplements as treatments. Dr. Korec breaks down how chemotherapy for pets differs from human treatment (hint: most pets tolerate it surprisingly well!) and even shares which dog breeds lose their hair and how it grows back differently. Plus, she gives her unfiltered take on what *not* to do as a pet owner in the oncology office — like trusting breeders over licensed vets. It’s an honest, informative, and eye-opening episode every pet parent should hear.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
