Hey Larry King! Do your homework!!
August 23rd, 2009 | Posted by Mike KearneyWhat made me sickest over the Larry King show on prostate cancer was in the beginning of the show, when Larry King stated something along the lines that if they find the cure for prostate cancer they just might have to name it or call it the Milken cure. That set the tone for the show and the angle he was playing.
Larry King lost most of his fortune not too many years ago flipping insurance policy’s under the advice of some scammers. It worked well until he found out he was the mark. To recover, it looks like he went with Madoff, where he was once again taken to the cleaners. In Milken he finally found someone with juice. The show was packed with the mutual admiration society. Milken is doing his image rehabilitation desperately seeking a pardon. Maybe Larry will have Kerry on next (I can dream).
Larry King, Mike Milken, John McEnroe, Colin Powell, Joe Torre, Rudolph Guiliani, a cast of big mouths with not one word to say about Provenge. They are a sickening, pathetic bunch. We know Larry knows about Provenge because many of our friends and members reached out to Larry in the past and more recently before the show. Now if I were a conspiracy theorist…
They never mentioned Provenge, a non toxic, non invasive safe and effective immunotherapy that harnesses and enhances your own healthy cells to fight your own prostate cancer cells. Some men with late stage pc are living 8 years later. 1 in 6 men will get prostate cancer in their lifetime.
Provenge should be on the market by next year, in spite of Milken. His chairman, Howard Scher of the Prostate Cancer Foundation Therapeutic Consortium, and Milken’s recently departed CEO, Alison Martin of the Melanoma Research Alliance, colluded on the leaked letters that stopped Provenge dead in its tracks from reaching the 69,000+ men who have died since May 2007.
Mark Mitchell of Deep Capture recently published an exposé about Milken’s part in the death of 60,000 men and the delay of Provenge. The complete story of Dendreon is now available 21 August 2009

The PCF is also trying to take credit for financing Provenge? It stated this because it sent some money to the University of San Francisco back in the year 2000 for Eric Small to work on immunotherapy. In 2006 Small wrote a rather positive article stating Provenge may work. In 2007 Howie Scher and Alison Martin used that 2006 abstract against Provenge highlighting the word “may” as to say it may not work. PCF cannot take credit here. It can take credit for two of its big shots stopping Provenge which had positive Phase III trials under its belt while Asentar, Abiraterone and GVAX, treatments the PCF touted, were only finished with Phase II trials.
Furthermore, in the 2005 PCF Annual Report, Novacea and Cougar did not give any money to PCF. Dendreon donated between $25k to $50K. Cell Genesis gave between $10K to $25K.
Not only did the PCF do nothing to push for Provenge approval, they actually accepted money from Dendreon to support the PCF. It should have been the other way around. Dendreon was struggling for every dollar it could muster, and must have felt it had to make a donation to PCF too! Something stinks in the world of Milken’s philanthropy and I can smell it all the way in New Jersey.
In the 2006 PCF Annual Report Dendreon gave between $50k and $100K. Research the PCF supported, like Novacea and Cell Genesys gave $10 to $25K. Cougar Biotechnology a big fat zero.
In the 2007 PCF Annual Report Dendreon gave between $50k and $100K. Novacea and Cell Genesys $10 to $25K. Cougar Biotechnology a big fat zero.
Well we know Asentar was central in Milken’s ProQuest, and Abiraterone is PCF’s favorite now, and GVAX got mentioned in a donation request flyer, but Provenge gets little or no mention. And yet Dendreon gave the most money to PCF. No, PCF should not get any credit for the success of Provenge.
BTW Has anybody seen or heard from Milken’s co-conspirator in the derailment of Provenge, Alison Martin?
Shame on Michael Milken, Larry King, Alison Martin, Howard Scher, Maha Hussain, Andrew Von Eschenbach, Richard Pazdur, Jesse Goodman and all the people at the FDA who are silent while our members continue to die from Prostate Cancer as Provenge languishes on the shelves.
Please remember Bruce Tower in your thoughts and prayers and his wife Carol and their children and grand children. Bruce was always there for us to help bang the drum for Provenge. Thanks to all who sent donations to the family. It was very appreciated. We will be putting the letter they sent us online shortly.

Here is a photo of Larry King and Mike Milken recently having lunch at Nate and Al’s deli in L.A. I checked the menu but they must have put a special order in. I didn’t see baloney sandwiches.
King to Milken: He Madoff With My Money!
Larry King, who lost more than a million bucks in the Bernie Madoff scam, had breakfast this morning with someone who certainly understands the situation: Junk bond felon Michael Milken.
Milken, who was the poster child for Wall Street greed in the 1980’s, noshed with King at Nate ‘n Al in Bev Hills. Larry did a lot of listening during the meal as Michael spoke almost nonstop.
Milken served 22 months in federal prison for securities fraud in the late 80’s

Whaddya know? Small world.
Nate n’ Al’s, the venerable delicatessen on North Beverly Drive. . . . Al Mendelson got a job in a deli in Detroit, Michigan, a deli owned by Ivan Boesky’s family.
