Original Note:
This claim about hidden cancer cures being suppressed through patents is false. While there are many patented cancer treatments and therapies, there is no credible evidence of effective “cures” being withheld. Cancer is a complex group of diseases. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2690134/ https://www.unf.edu/newsroom/2024/06/Cancer-Fighting-Compound-Patent.html https://coe.northeastern.edu/news/patented-molecule-that-eliminates-cancer-cells-commercialized/ https://www.epo.org/en/news-events/in-focus/medical-technologies/cancer https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5798424/ https://aacrjournals.org/cancerdiscovery/article/12/1/26/675613/The-Struggle-against-Cancer-Misinformation#skipNav https://www.worldwidecancerresearch.org/news-opinion/2020/march/could-somebody-be-hiding-the-cure-for-cancer/
