Researchers thought atezolizumab (Tecentriq) would help all bladder cancer patients, but it did nothing for the large majority of them, which were found to also not have the ctDNA indicator. Only the worst bladder cancer cases had this, but these really responded well to the drug, getting enough benefit as to now have as good a prognosis as those with a “mild” form of bladder cancer.

This drug is currently available, and the test is, as well.

While researching nutritional inputs for my partner’s prostate cancer, I ran into this study on the supplement Astaxanthin (ASX) for treatment of breast cancer. It appears ASX is potentially effective for a number of cancers. It promotes apoptosis (normal cell death) and other death for cancer cells without harm to normal tissues. Specifically it may prevent metastesis. There were 2 reference links on prostate cancer I will check out. You might want to post the link as a separate article as breast cancer is very common.
