Planet TV Studios and their innovative television show, New Frontiers, presents episode on The Burzynski Clinic.
Established in 1977, the Burzynski Clinic has grown to be a nationally and internationally recognized cancer center that provides cutting-edge cancer treatments.
For over 40 years, Dr. Burzynski’s cancer research and patient care has been inspired by the philosophy of the physician Hippocrates: ‘First, do no harm’. Therefore, our approach to treatment is ‘personalized’ in an attempt to maximize effectiveness and minimize side effects for each cancer patient.
In everything we do, we are proudly committed to these principles of cancer treatment and to continued cancer research. Our mission is to beat cancer.
PERSONALIZED AND PRECISION MEDICINE
Personalized and precision cancer therapy utilizes an understanding of each patient’s genetic make-up to unravel the biology of their cancer. Using this information, our physicians attempt to identify treatment strategies that may be more effective and cause fewer side effects than would be expected with standard treatments. By performing genomic tests and analyses, our physicians customize treatment to each patient’s needs.
Personalized medicine may include the combination of targeted therapies and immunotherapies with conventional therapy. It may also involve the use of investigational agents (Antineoplastons), as approved by the law. Patients and/or their caretakers receive training for administering all therapies at home, as well as nutritional counseling.

CONVENTIONAL THERAPIES
Conventional therapy may be utilized in the treatment of some patients at the Burzynski Clinic and is frequently combined with targeted therapies or immunotherapies to maximize the effectiveness and minimize the negative impact of conventional therapy
Surgery, radiation therapy, and specialized imaging such as MRI, CT and PET scan, are provided at other local medical facilities.
APPROVED TARGETED THERAPIES
Targeted therapy includes drugs that are aimed at specific genes or proteins that are only found in cancer cells or their environment and contribute to cancer growth and survival. It is used to block the growth and spread of cancer cells. Currently there are a number of targeted therapies approved by the FDA to treat many types of cancers. These are available for use at the Burzynski Clinic.
The Burzynski Clinic has extensive experience with the drug phenylbutyrate (PB), which targets multiple genetic abnormalities simultaneously. This experience is document
