Stop spreading lies man. I get that you are a nwbo pumper, but stop lying. Provenge did 4.1 month overall survival improvement.

Gary,

Great post! The history behind the dendritic cell technology that we have today is fascinating…

Dr. Steinman was awarded the Nobel Prize for discovering the dendritic cell. In 2018, James P. Allison and Tasuku Honjo were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their pioneering work in cancer therapy through the discovery of immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Today, Dr. Linda Liau and Dr. Pawel Kalinski are combining dendritic cell technology with checkpoint blockade technology to reach new levels of efficacy and healing for patients! UCLA and Roswell are studying how these two Nobel Prize-winning discoveries can be combined to treat multiple distinct cancers!





Recently in 2024, we commemorated the loss of the great Dr. Ralph Steinman 13 years ago on September 30th.

“We know he will live on through his scientific contributions.”

Dr. Steinman’s legacy is changing the field of cancer immunotherapy today, and his invaluable Nobel Prize-winning work lives on at UCLA, King’s College and Roswell Park, among other cutting-edge institutions.

The recent evolution of dendritic cell technology has been vast, and Dr. Steinman’s prophetic words foreshadowed the future and DCVax-L. In the last 3 minutes of the YouTube video, Dr. Steinman describes the “first generation of this approach” which used only ONE single antigen. Consider that DCVax-L can present HUNDREDS of distinct antigens today!

The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has proven significant historically, and a great number of the discoveries that were awarded the prize have proven quite impactful.

The award represents the credible collective opinion of the 50 distinguished members of the Nobel Assembly and the opinions of any number of distinguished international medical experts whom the members may choose to consult. By their own published criteria, their decision to award the prize means that they believe the medical breakthrough will impact humanity globally.

To put the relatively recent awards for dendritic cell discovery and PD-1 in perspective, consider that checkpoint inhibitors have only existed commercially for 10 years. Drugs such as Keytruda have been blockbusters, and the full impact of PD-1 as a drug class is yet to be realized as the technology continues to evolve to include additional new products, such as subcutaneous versions.

Other examples of Nobel Prize-winning medical breakthroughs include:

X-Ray Technology, 1901
Penicillin, 1945
Insulin, 1923
MRI Imaging Technology, 2003
Monoclonal Antibodies, 1984
CRISPR Technology, 2020

These discoveries and many others that won the Nobel Prize have gone on to either revolutionize medical practice or create entire industries around their commercialization.

DNDN looked at differences in median survival. I don't believe they ever tried to characterize a long survival tail. The naysayers/media shills/manipulators claimed it only provided a small survival benefit. With the approval of Provenge, any shorts and naked-shorts (manipulators) were likely in panic mode as the share price shot up to above $50. Eventually, the company got financially over-extended with their manufacturing build-up, and was eventually taken down. With NWBO, you may be seeing the DNDN-playbook 2.0 as many of the same tactics are being employed.
