Immune therapies in the treatment of cancer
In the Gorter Model, a full range of immune therapies are used to treat cancer patients.
Although fever therapy and dendritic cell vaccinations are the primary forms of treatment, there are also several other complementary therapies that are incorporated, depending on the needs of the individual.
The main goals of these innovative therapies are to restore and maximize immune function. The other goal is to destroy cancer cells without introducing toxic agents that can have a negative impact on immune function, and on patient’s quality of life.
Nutrient infusions
At the Medical Center Cologne, essentially all patients receive antioxidants nutrients, trace elements and minerals via IV (intravenously).
Thymus peptides
The thymus plays an important role in the overall immunomodulation. One could say that the thymus is the brain of the immune system.
When I began treatment at the Medical Center Cologne, Dr. Gorter evaluated my condition and suggested a two-week course of vaccination with the Newcastle disease virus. Before we began treatment, they took blood samples. The vaccine was given every day, skipping one day on the weekend. The first week it was administered intravenously. After that it was given by injection and also provided in a little spray, which I inhaled. We went to Cologne every other day, and took the vaccine home for the second day, where it was administered by a nurse in our city.
