Publication number: 20110015134Abstract: This patent describes a method and materials to treat cancer diagnosed at an early stage, particularly breast cancer. It considers that metastatic breast cancer growth includes periods of dormancy, that surgery to remove a primary tumor can induce metastatic growth, and that women with Down Syndrome rarely get breast cancer. It elevates the level of an antiangiogenic drug produced by chromosome 21 preferably Endostatin in plasma preferably at least one day prior to surgery and kept at that high level preferably indefinitely. In one embodiment, the therapy specifically excludes drugs that significantly inhibit the VEGF pathway since that is important for wound healing. This method will prevent results of surgery from stimulating tumor growth and angiogenesis of micrometastatic disease that is much easier to prevent than control after the fact. This can be done indefinitely since there is no acquired resistance that develops, as happens in most cancer therapies.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2010Publication date: January 20, 2011Inventor: Michael W.
