It seems that many of us are are employing strategies that can almost take the risks of for instance cardiovascular and metabolic disease of the table and we may have significant control over things like sarcopenia, inflammatory disease, etc, also. At the same time, while decreasing our overall aging can help with cancer risks, it seems that caner risks still remain in a much larger way than seve… --- ## [Ivermectin And Cancer](https://www.rapamycin.news/t/ivermectin-and-cancer/17525)

Hi guys. I ran in to the X post today regarding the Ivermectin and Cancer. Ben Smith on X: “Ivermectin is the future of cancer treatment. This drug was once labeled “horse de-wormer.” Today, extensive research reveals it has 15 powerful ANTI-CANCER mechanisms of action. Let’s look at the science behind how it works: :thread: https://t.co/pqOZTmLxLd” / X Thats not the first post that I see regar… --- ## [Cancer Mutation Catalogue](https://www.rapamycin.news/t/cancer-mutation-catalogue/23486)

Saw this on twitter… Derya Unutmaz, MD 19h I’ve now created, using the OpenAI Codex app, a massive Cancer Mutation Catalog of driver mutations! It contains more than 90,000 mutations across 1,600 genes. You can filter by cancer type, limited now, but will soon expand it to include all cancer types https://cancer-mutations-derya.netlify.app --- ## [Prostate Cancer and Rapamycin?](https://www.rapamycin.news/t/prostate-cancer-and-rapamycin/8710)

I have a very specific situation. We are looking for advice on prostate cancer and rapamycin. My family friend is 75 and male. He has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. He has a 4+3 Gleason score. He is no longer considered a candidate for radiation treatment. He had the first of 45 radiation sessions, and it damaged his femoral nerve so badly that he’s having trouble walking. He’s having trou… --- ## [Galleri test prescription](https://www.rapamycin.news/t/galleri-test-prescription/11613)

I’m interested in paying for a liquid biopsy out of pocket. I believe Galleri is the only one available in the US. Their website has a telemed referral service, but it seems to only be for 50yo+. Anyone have any luck elsewhere? Telemed would be preferable. --- ## ['Universal' cancer vaccine heading to human trials](https://www.rapamycin.news/t/universal-cancer-vaccine-heading-to-human-trials/20876)

This could be interesting. We know that there are existing and effective vaccines for several cancers, if this “universal” one works, it will change things significantly for many of us today and hopefully for all humanity. ‘Universal’ cancer vaccine heading to human trials --- ## [Nifuroxazide - Lifespan and Anti-cancer Potential](https://www.rapamycin.news/t/nifuroxazide-lifespan-and-anti-cancer-potential/20587)

Hello to the whole community. I’ve just joined this exciting group. I read that some dog and cat owners were giving rapamycin. My 15 year old cat has a squamous cell carcinoma, which is affecting his jaw. To help him, I’d like to give him rapamycin. But like many of you, I’m struggling with how to dose and how to cycle it in the context of a cancer. If you have any data or scientific references to… --- ## [Does rapamycin slow aging or just prevent cancer?](https://www.rapamycin.news/t/does-rapamycin-slow-aging-or-just-prevent-cancer/10084)

Hi folks, I would think that there are several findings that might be in direct conflict with the findings or the apparent conclusion from this study, which is not new btw: “The increase in lifespan was observed only in the tumor-bearing cohort.” a sentence in the article reads. So, is rapamycin merely a cancer treatment, in mice, and that is why it extends lifespan? If not, what are major fi…
