Background

Some studies have shown naltrexone may inhibit cancer. There have never been full clinical trials to investigate this. I would like the government to fund full trials in order to get this drug licensed.

Additional details

I have stage 4 liver cancer and have been told I don't have more than 2 or 3 years to live. I believe this could give me a longer life if it proves effective.
