Instead, he was harassed by the FDA and State of Texas and his patents were stolen by the US government in concert with a pharmaceutical company.
Burzynski is the true story of a man who may one day be the only individual to patent a cancer drug beating out the pharmaceutical company and government that attempted to patent his work after he had already done so. If this seems bizarre and impossible, get the film.
Truth is definitely stranger than fiction in this well told tale of deception by government agencies that are supposed to be looking for and approving safe canter treatments. Unfortunately for Dr.Burzynski and the rest of humanity seeking a low cost non-toxic solution, these agencies are busy protecting the rights not of individuals, but of the pharmaceutical companies.
It seems a fitting reminder that we seem to have the best government money can buy.
In short, I cannot recommend this David vs Goliath film too highly. The doctor has completed Stage 2 tests after and all that is left is Stage 3. You’ll want to view this DVD, share it with friends and then track his progress because if his anteoplastins make it to the market, you will have seen a miracle in action and we need lots of miracles right about now. And you, your family and friends may one day be able to stop tumors in their tracks without chemo and radiation.
