Patients with terminal, advanced prostate cancer generally have a survival of 2-5 years. The cause of this cancer was unknown and no treatment has been available. Based on 45 years of research, University of Maryland scientists, Dr. Costello and Dr. Franklin, identified the cause of this cancer and a potential treatment. Their treatment terminated this cancer in a patient with expected death in 24 months. This might be the first report of a successful treatment for advanced prostate cancer.
