...fewer than 44 of the counts named Dr. Ivy himself, a noted physiologist who was formerly the University of Illinois' vice president of professional colleges. Indicted with him were: Dr. Stevan Durovic, who claimed to have first made Krebiozen in Argentina from the blood of horses; Dr. William F. P. Phillips, a general practitioner; and the Krebiozen Research Foundation. Among the grand jury's allegations: - > Stevan Durovic offered to make 15 grams of Krebiozen for the National Cancer Institute at $170,000 a gram, though Krebiozen is creatine monohydrate, a common chemical costing 300 a gram-and "even...
...Yugoslavia has made a remarkable little summer resort out of Sveti Stevan, a 15th century town on a rock outcropping that rises dramatically out of the Adriatic and is connected to the mainland by a causeway that also serves as two splendid beaches. Once a fortress, then a fishing village, then abandoned entirely, it was transformed by the Yugoslav government in 1960 into a town-hotel to attract tourists from Europe and the U.S. The interiors of the old fishermen's houses in the winding streets and tiny flowered squares have been done over as comfortable modern suites with...
There were two secrets about Krebiozen: What is in it? And does it work? Yugoslav Emigre Dr. Stevan Durovic, who says he extracted the so-called anti-cancer drug from horse serum and brought it from Argentina to Illinois, has never identified the drug's ingredients, and both private and Government cancer experts for years refused to give the unknown substance wide trials with patients. Last week the first secret was out: the Food and Drug Administration stated flatly that Krebiozen is nothing more than the common amino acid derivative, creatine, found naturally in the muscle tissue...
Bitter controversy has raged for twelve years over a so-called anti-cancer drug named Krebiozen. A refugee physician from Yugoslavia, Dr. Stevan Durovic, said that he extracted it from the blood of specially inoculated horses in Argentina and brought it to the U.S. in 1949. Its first trials on human patients were made by Chicago's famous Physiologist Andrew Conway Ivy, who announced what he considered promising results in March...
Yugoslav-born Dr. Stevan Durovic, developer of the drug, and the laboratories which distribute it claim that it is not sold, but that doctors using it make a $9.50 "contribution" to the Krebiozen Research Foundation. The FDA charges flatly that "Krebiozen has been promoted and sold as a cancer remedy." If this is so, FDA now has power to stop its distribution. The Government can ban further use of Krebiozen unless its promoters can show, by June 7, that they are making a truly scientific investigation of it, or that it has shown enough evidence of curative powers to justify...
