A guy I'm following on YouTube, Guy Tenenbaum, https://youtube.com/@cancertherapy is vlogging about his fight against pancreatic cancer. He was given a couple of years to live after a stage 4 cancer diagnosis. He's "beaten" cancer with a novel approach, and remained cancer free for several years, but his cancer relapsed recently. One thing I remember him saying repeatedly is that one should not give cancer cells a routine, but change the protocol constantly, because the cancer cells will eventually adapt, and develop a resistance to the protocol. I was reminded of that while reading the above quoted text from the article.
If he beat Stage 4 pancreatic cancer previously, that’s impressive because pancreatic cancer has one of the lowest survival rates

Yes, that's right. No chemotherapy, no radiotherapy, and he's not a lunatic. He has a science-based approach, and as a matter of fact he has hired a whole team of scientists to follow and advise him. Together, they have published several scientific papers on the topic.
Their approach is based on the premise that cancer is a metabolic disease, as postulated by Nobel price laureate Otto Warburg at the beginning of the last century. The treatment therefore consists of blocking all metabolic paths to cancer cells to prevent their multiplication. I'm not an expert, but I've watched several videos of Drs Seyfried, Schwartz, etc, who work with him. It's a fascinating topic and very promising.
