A Scientific Medical Genius Shows the Way
By Alan M. Kapuler Ph.D.
When you grow up among medical doctors, when you go to grad school and get to know scientific stars and conceptual wizards, when you age into realizations that most of the highly touted folk are rather regular people, then you get lymphoma and find out who knows how to deal with a life threatening disease.
Among the brilliant doctors and medical scientists, Robert Nagourney is in a class by himself.
I knew him for years when we would talk nucleic acid molecular biology in 4-6 hour sessions.
To my immense good fortune, he was the chief resident of a hospital where a biopsy of one of my swollen lymph nodes was deposited and he read it.
Years later he treated me for an advancing disease that was killing me. I was 47 years old. Now I am 70. Thanks go to many....for my wife and family, for macrobiotics...for herbal potions, for yoga, for organic food and especially for Dr. Robert Nagourney.
Not too many doctors know and understand the fabric of the cellular and biochemical phenomenon of the human body. I have never met any medical doctor who knows and understands like the man who has written Outliving Cancer.
If you have cancer, please read this book.
If you are interested in the leading edge of helping people survive this pernicious set of illnesses, this book will give you an optimistic view about
good science and great medicine.
Further details of Nagourney's successful treatment of me for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma can be found in Chapter 12, East Meets West, of his book.

No Question.
By Michael J. Elias (Pursuit of The Grander)
There is NO QUESTION that Dr. Nagourney has passed the crossroads and is heading in the right direction. I lost a family member in 2003 from Ovarian Cancer due to an Oncologist prescribing chemo out of a book.
When I was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2005 I called Dr. Nagourney at Rational Therapeutics the same day. I have been in remission since 2005.
Anyone who has cancer should read "Outliving Cancer". Anyone who cares about their body should also read "Outliving Cancer"
Why would someone take a chemo prescription from a book when you can find the best chemo or chemo combination for your specific cancer? Where's the logic in not getting the best odds of survival?
My wish is that many other Oncologists see the light and carry on what Dr, Nagorney has worked to accomplish.

Outliving (and Re-Writing) History
By Larry Weisenthal
I have known Robert Nagourney, the author of this book, both as a friend and colleague. I am not surprised to find that he has written a book that is both highly readable and which also carries much information of real value to cancer patients. My concerns with this book stem from glaring inaccuracies which, if left uncorrected, will unjustly damage the reputations of several clinicians and scientists who, to at least the same degree as Dr. Nagourney, have eschewed the easy path and instead have dedicated their careers to improving cancer care and extending lives by personalizing cancer treatments for individual patients.
Apart from a pervasive theme throughout the book wherein Dr. Nagourney seems, both overtly and by inference, to credit himself with the work of others (this is wholly unnecessary, by the way, as Dr. Nagourney has indeed accomplished much of which he rightfully can be proud without the need for embellishment), is his characterization of all "cell proliferation" technologies - and particularly that which was offered by a company called Oncotech, as, basically, worthless. It should be noted that Dr. Nagourney and I were co-founders of Oncotech (no longer in business). The company originally was founded upon my technology, the DiSC assay, which is based upon the "cell death" endpoint. Dr. Nagourney still uses a re-branded modification of this (DiSC) assay in his own commercial laboratory. Dr. Nagourney's quarrel with Oncotech appears to lie not with my DiSC technology but instead in its use of a completely different technology, added later on. His strong language of condemnation implies that, using this "cell proliferation" technology, Oncotech basically provided a worthless service to more than 50,000 cancer patients.
I will not burden the reader with specifics except to state that Dr. Nagourney's assertion, if not deliberate, bespeaks an incomplete understanding of the technology which he carelessly trashes - and, apparently, also of the considerable body of published literature which supports it. Unaccountably, Dr. Nagourney presents himself as a hero who courageously battles opposition within the company, in order to protect cancer patients from being victimized. In fact, I and others at Oncotech, aware that every laboratory test has both strengths and weakness, devoted ourselves to assuring that the tests were performed accurately and that physicians clearly understood what the tests could tell us and what they could not. Hundreds of physicians were long-time users of Oncotech's tests precisely because they found them to be useful in treating cancer patients, and many positive, independent, peer-reviewed studies published in esteemed medical journals attested to their predictive accuracy.
There is just one more point (though many other exist) I'll mention here. It relates to Dr. Nagourney's representation of the "Medicare controversy." I would excuse Dr. Nagourney's taking a bit of self-serving liberty with the facts if, in seeking to inflate his own contribution, he did not attempt to undermine my reputation by misstating my position in the matter. Dr. Nagourney paints his opposition to Medicare reimbursement for these tests (something thousands of Medicare patients had wished for over the years) as being based on scientific and ethical principle.
In point of fact, Dr. Nagourney was opposed for reasons of financial self-interest. He feared approval at a reimbursement rate to his lab at a level below what he already was charging Medicare patients as a non-covered service. He sought to prevent all cancer patients from receiving Medicare coverage for not only Oncotech's services but also for services provided by laboratories in competition with him which used the same cell death-based technologies used in his own laboratory. If he couldn't make a go of it at levels of reimbursement provided by Medicare, he sought (unsuccessfully, it turned out, contrary to the false impression given in his book) to prevent other laboratories from offering services which would be covered by Medicare, to the detriment of cancer patients who could benefit from these services, but couldn't afford to pay the full cost of these tests out of pocket, as in the case of his own clientele.
In any case, the Medicare issue isn't a matter of debate. Verbatim transcripts from the relevant meetings clearly show that my role and my statements were not as Dr. Nagourney portrays them. I argued in favor of Medicare patients, with proven scientific facts - not in favor of Oncotech, of which I was no longer a part and which was, in fact, a competitor to my own personalized chemotherapy testing lab.
I am in the process of preparing a point by point rebuttal of many other historical liberties which appear in Dr. Nagourney's book. These will be available on my website as soon as I am able to complete them (I am a medical oncologist with an active laboratory-based practice):

This could have been an excellent book. Much of what appears in it is, indeed, excellent. Sadly, egregious inaccuracies in some areas will force the reader to ask the question, "Which portions of this book can I believe and which portions can I not?" It didn't have to be this way.
