Clinical observations and literature review suggest that a broad-spectrum approach can be useful in cancer treatment. In the book Life Over Cancer, Block describes a clinical model of integrative medicine in which natural products target multiple pathways of cancer progression: proliferation, apoptosis, tumor growth, treatment resistance, angiogenesis and cell-to-cell communication.
This is a unique and potentially effective cancer treatment, particularly for cases of advanced or rare diseases for which no conventional therapies are available. However, a broad-spectrum approach to cancer must be carefully and selectively designed and used in the context of a genuinely integrated clinical system. This is the only way to maximize its potential for improving patient outcomes. In such cases, it is not a substitute for targeted therapy or other standard treatments, but may be used as a follow-up or maintenance therapy to reduce recurrence and extend survival. [2] It is also a viable strategy in palliative and hospice settings where low- or no-invasive strategies are appropriate and desired.
