But wait, as they say on TV, there is more. Not content with just being a cancer fraud, now this quack is curing old age.
Yes it is remarkable that in the only confirmed study, 32 out out of his 36 patients died. Please read my post above
I was pretty restrained then, and will just repeat that this doctor is a total fraud. Worse, his clinical trials are a sham that he uses to skirt around the FDA protection since his treatment does not work. 30 years of clinical trials and no proof yet. Since I wrote that post, other commentators have said it better and in more detail
[quote]Trials are not designed so that they can ever answer the question of whether the real drug, namely sodium phenylbutyrate, is effective, either alone in combination, against cancer, and, if it is, against which cancers. Rather, they appear custom-designed so that Dr. Burzynski can keep administering antineoplastons (which, remember, are nothing more than the metabolic breakdown products of sodium phenylbutyrate) to patients. It�s also incredibly unethical science in that Dr. Burzynski is requiring patients to pay huge amounts of money out-of-pocket for unvalidated combinations of targeted therapies thrown together with (these days, at least) sodium phenylbutyrate and sold as �personalized gene-targeted cancer therapy.� As for his clinical trials, he has been warned by the FDA about lax Institutional Review Board procedures that fail to protect human subjects, fail to guarantee adequate informed consent, do not adequately monitor studies with ongoing reviews, and fail to report conflicts of interest of IRB members. In other words, not only does Dr. Burzynski do �personalized targeted therapy� badly; he does clinical trials badly as well.
Unfortunately, it�s not even clear to me that Dr. Burzynski�s cured a single cancer. In fact, Skeptical Humanities has been tallying publicly available cases of patients who went to Burzynski and did not survive. It�s a depressing read, and these are stories we don�t see, even from much of the mainstream press. In the process, the harm he is doing is incalculable as he tarnishes the reputation of a perfectly fine experimental anticancer drug (phenylbutyrate) and the very concept of �personalized cancer therapy� with the stench of quackery. Certainly, it doesn�t help that of late he�s branched out into dubious anti-aging remedies, forming a new division of his clinic called AminoCare.

Unfortunately, what we have here is a case of crank magnetism, and the people who pay the price are the desperate patients enticed to spend tens of thousands of dollars for a combination of chemotherapy, thrown-together targeted therapies, and an orphan drug sold as something unique and brilliant.
