LIFE EXTENSION MAGAZINE
Stephen Strum, M.D. has made cancer medicine the focus of his life since 1963.
Of Dr. Strum’s 59 professional years, 40 of them involved tireless efforts to provide patients with the best means to evaluate and treat prostate cancer, and to prevent the many side effects associated with anti-cancer therapies.
This resulted in 127 peer-reviewed, published papers and 124 presentations, most of which were accomplished in the setting of a clinical practice, with negligible financial assistance.
Over the past six decades, Dr. Strum provided comprehensive individualized treatments and felt privileged to be an integral part of the lives of thousands of cancer patients and their families.
The situations and problems his patients have sought help with have included:
- Men living with the dread of getting prostate cancer,
- Those with a strong family history of prostate cancer seeking ways to prevent it,
- Newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients, and
- Men with advanced stages of the disease who had undergone various treatments, with many being unfortunate to have progressive disease.
I asked Dr. Strum to share with readers of Life Extension Magazine® the best ways to treat prostate cancer.
In response to my request, Dr. Strum investigated 570 peer-reviewed papers over the course of many months to honor us with an honest 10,000-word appraisal.
He went further and selected almost 300 key articles to create a public Dropbox™ folder for Life Extension® readers wishing to delve deeply into this vital topic and related issues.
You will be able to download close to 300 PDFs and graphic files into a zip file on your computer. Then you can unzip it to open and see all the files sorted alphabetically by lead author and by year of publication.
Dr. Strum is semi-retired. He saved his own life using his exceptional grasp of the medical literature and clinical expertise to enable a complete response to light chain amyloidosis.
The articles Dr. Strum compiled are written for those who have, or suspect they have prostate cancer. They contain meticulously laid-out facts, opinions of critical relevance to prostate cancer, and hyperlinks to relevant websites.
These articles are not meant for casual reading. They require intensive focus for those seeking better diagnostics and treatments for the most common malignancy striking men.
What may surprise readers of Dr. Strum’s reports are the myriad of advanced diagnostics and treatments that are not being routinely incorporated into conventional practice.
The best I can do to save lives is to provide Dr. Strum with a forum to empower prostate cancer patients with information that can assist them in utilizing the many modern treatment modalities currently available.
