 Proton   P   The Bragg Peak describes the characteristic of
               protons and ions to have a peak release in
               energy right before it comes to rest. This
 Therapy       accounts for the amazing power to kill cancer
               cells, while minimizing bad radiation exposure to
               healthy tissue.

X-Rays expose the healthy
tissue to maximum power,
then decreases in energy on
the way to the tumor. After
the tumor, the energy is still
dissipating, and irradiating
healthy tissue distally to the
tumor.

Protons are going through
healthy tissue at very low
radiation levels and at high
speed, then reaches peak
power at the tumor,
delivering peak killing power.
The radiation level then drops
off very quickly causing little
damage to healthy tissue
distally..

Carbon Ions also have the Bragg Peak traits, but delivered at over 20x’s
the power of protons.                            Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012

DNA strands, which leaves a chance for
   cancer cells to repair themselves.

Carbon Ions deliver massive double
strand breaks of DNA in the cancer
                                       Carbon
cells, making it impossible for them
        to repair themselves.

X-Ray Radiation: Good
         Proton Therapy: Better
                 Carbon Ion Therapy: Best
 Carbon Ions have shown the ability to kill tumors with
  2 to 40x’s less treatment sessions than with Protons.

   Consider what that means to a cancer victim.

   Full treatments finished in 10 days instead of 40*

   Less stress, and less “downtime” for the patient.

   Less unnecessary exposure of healthy cells to radiation.

   Financial savings for less travel and lodging during treatments,
    and less work missed

 If you go with Protons, 67,500 less people will get treated for their cancer
     3000
 from your center.
     2500

 A Heavy Ion center, charging the same price to complete cancer treatments as
    2000
 a Proton center should generate 400 to 1000% more profit.
 On 1500 basis, compare generating 45 million USD yearly revenue as a Proton
     this
 center, (just for Proton treatments) or 180 million USD as a Heavy Ions
 Center… or how about DOUBLE THAT??? (which is a possibility)

• Deliver 20x’s the cancer killing power of
The Bragg Peak Systems
                            Protons.
  Medical Advantage
                          • Cure the Patient 4 to 10x’s faster


                          • Financial earning potential over a Proton Center is
The Bragg Peak Systems      staggering.
  Financial Advantage     • Proton’s will find it hard to compete with Heavy Ion
                            Centers in the future.


                          • Shorter treatment times potentially 4 to 10x’s less.
The Bragg Peak Systems    • Less Stress for the patient Physically, Emotionally and

                          • Less unnecessary radiation exposure.


                          • A Heavy Ion Center will provide maximum advantage
The Bragg Peak Systems      to the general public by having the capability to treat
   Benefit to Society       many multiples more patients than a Proton center
                            with the same number of treatment rooms.

Ion Therapy: A More Effective Way to Treat Cancer

  • 1. “The International Agency for Research on Cancer projects that by 2030 almost 21.4 million new cases will be diagnosed annually…..” http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2010/06 /02/cancer-world-statistics.html Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 2. An simple primer on various treatments for cancer such as Photons, Protons, and Carbon ions. Lester Lin v7 10/4/2012
  • 3. Every year, 10’s of millions of people will hear these words from their doctor. You Have Cancer Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 4.  Typical cancer treatments:  Chemotherapy  Controlled poisoning of your body  Terrible side effects.  Hair loss  Nausea  Digestive tract Surgery  Invasive  Risk of infection  Damage to critical tissue  Scarring  Side effects such as impotence and incontinence for prostate cancer as an example. Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012

  • 6.  Proton P Therapy Protons are propelled through an accelerator at 50% of the speed of light, then shot into the patient’s body aimed precisely at the tumor. Cancer Tumor Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 7.  Proton P The Bragg Peak describes the characteristic of protons and ions to have a peak release in energy right before it comes to rest. This Therapy accounts for the amazing power to kill cancer cells, while minimizing bad radiation exposure to healthy tissue. There are only 30 Proton Therapy Centers around the world. Cancer Tumor Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 8. X-Rays expose the healthy tissue to maximum power, then decreases in energy on the way to the tumor. After the tumor, the energy is still dissipating, and irradiating healthy tissue distally to the tumor. Protons are going through healthy tissue at very low radiation levels and at high speed, then reaches peak power at the tumor, delivering peak killing power. The radiation level then drops off very quickly causing little damage to healthy tissue distally.. Carbon Ions also have the Bragg Peak traits, but delivered at over 20x’s the power of protons. Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 9. Control Ion Pre-Linear Synchrotron System Source C Accelerator Accelerator How Ions are shot. The Ion Source produces carbon ions and feeds it to the Pre-Linear Accelerator which accelerates the carbon ions and feeds it to Beam Line The Synchrotron Accelerator which speeds the carbon ions to 70% the speed of light and shoots them through the Beam Line to the The Gantry, which aims these high speed carbon ions at the patient’s cancerous Gantry tumor Treatment Couch and Chair while the patient is held very still in the Treatment Couch or chair to ensure maximum possible accuracy.

  • 11.  Carbon Ion Therapy vs. Proton Therapy Bragg Peak Systems, Inc.: A company that will build FDA approved Heavy Ion Therapy Systems. Protons come from Hydrogen molecules. P Carbon ions Carbon come from Carbon molecules. Many times, these are referred to as “Heavy Ions” because they are 20x’s 12x’s heavier than the protons, and cancer much more killing effective than energy protons against of cancer. Protons Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 12. P •An angry wild elephant is charging at you. •Do you want the gun on Carbon the left? •or the one on the right to protect you? •The small gun can kill an elephant. • But the big one will do it 20 x’s faster and more the efficiently. cancer killing •Elephant = cancer. energy •Protons = small gun of •Carbon Ions = BIG gun. Protons Lin ver. 1 Lester 10/4/2012
  • 13. Protons typically deliver single breaks of DNA strands, which leaves a chance for cancer cells to repair themselves. P P P P Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 14. Carbon Ions deliver massive double strand breaks of DNA in the cancer Carbon cells, making it impossible for them to repair themselves. Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
  • 15. X-Ray Radiation: Good Proton Therapy: Better Carbon Ion Therapy: Best  Carbon Ions have shown the ability to kill tumors with 2 to 40x’s less treatment sessions than with Protons.  Consider what that means to a cancer victim.  Full treatments finished in 10 days instead of 40*  Less stress, and less “downtime” for the patient.  Less unnecessary exposure of healthy cells to radiation.  Financial savings for less travel and lodging during treatments, and less work missed Lester Lin ver. 1 10/4/2012
