The video is everything I love about Trebek.
youtube.com
Genuinely praying for him and his family. If anyone could beat this, it's Trebek.
legitimately based
I hope he beats it. He was a staple in our household growing up and I still watch him when I visit my parents.

Hope he beats it
Is he the real life Jimmy Gator?
Evertime a story like this breaks I start to monkaS and wonder if i should get a checkup.
what does this all mean...stage 4 cancer
it means it doesnt look good for Alex
stage 4 means it has spread from the organ into other organs
Nice stage 4 digits.
I prefer classic concentration RIP

For me it's Drew Carrey, Austin Rogers, James Woods, Carl Benjamin, Stephen Molyneaux

folks saying he can beat it do not understand how relentless and horrible pancreatix cancer is. and stage for does mean it has spread. he has a month at most.
God is all powerful, but can't quite wrap his head around cancer.
ah-bloo-bloo
Hopefully the Jews deem Trebek important enough to get the secret cancer cures/dark magic they've been using to keep Ginsburg alive for decades.
Did he smoke?
Who could replace him as a host?
I thought Ken Jennings
What is 'Absolutely fucked', Alex?

His chances would be higher if he was 10 years younger but the dude is almost 80.
He's 78. I know people 20 years younger that look 10 years older.
I haven't watched Jeopardy in years. I've failed him.

only thing you're right about is the 1 month, I'll give him 2-3 because they'll probably nuke the pancreas with radiation
I love you Alex.
We have to meme the ever-loving shit out of Trebek to extend his life like we did with Robbie Rotten.
Pancreatic Cancer is a death sentence.
I think you should do it
I sincerely hope he gets through.
I think the world record for living with pancreatic cancer is 9 years.
The people loved and the world we know dies, replaced by the unfamiliar.
It's a hollow feeling sometimes but we have to keep moving forward user.
Create a similar memory for someone else.

DCA
emma for new host !
keep up with the times, gramps
Alex Trebek supports Trump fuck him I hope his death is painful
unironically this.
though i doubt it.
Sadly pancreatic cancer has one of the lowest survival rates of all cancers. Often symptoms are very diffuse and vague, so it isn't caught late, and in this case Stage 4 indicates that there is metastatic spread. There is cancer now in other organs, most likely the liver, with lymph node involvement and potential tumors on other organs as well. At this point there is no chance of a cure, simply prolonging the time left.
Unless it is a very rare form of pancreatic like Steve Jobs had which was neuroendocrine (explaining why he lived for years), the median survival is only going to be 6 months to a year tops.
The curse strikes again. S
You know what he meant. That makes you a zoomer in denial.
>Alex Trebek supports Trump
based
I mean this wouldn't be the first time that his life was in jeopardy
weed
My dad has Glioblastoma will probably be on line for heaven the same time Trebek is.
Which type was it, the more common one, I forget the name, is basically game over even with the best current medicine and lifestyle.
This is wrong. Pancreatic is generally a death sentence, period. Hell, even younger adult patients with Stage 1 pancreatic cancer and the most aggressive treatment available have a 5-year survival under 33%
Whos going to replace him when he dies in a few months?
Literally all Trebek has to do is not eat or drink for like 2 weeks and smoke weed and he will be cured.
I love how he still has humor in it all. I wonder if he is one of the least hated people on TV.
I'm really sad and I don't want to tell my Dad because he has watched Jeopardy daily for 15 years and him and my mom are going through some horrible stuff right now (My mom's MS recently progressed suddenly and now she can't walk and he is struggling to care for her)
>pull up that new study, Jamie
this guy knows what he's talking about
Don't forget about using float tanks and hunting elk.
>1% survival rate
Good thing he has COLONIAL PEN for only 9.99 a month
She is too pure for show business.
So which is it?
a friend of mine told me that jobs caught his unusually early and a relatively simple surgery could have rendered him cancer free, but he elected not to because he didn't want his body to be "violated" by a surgeon's scalpel or something like that. instead he opted to try hippie/new age type stuff, then it metastasized and he died an unpleasant death for practically no reason. is there any truth to that?
>Who could replace him as a host?
Shut up faggot
I was wondering this too, my dad was suggesting a woman. He's a bit of a smarmy cunt but probably the only Canadian I've ever been able to tolerate
So fucking hard to screen Pancreatic cancer early. Super hard to detect.
I know people half his age that look a quarter older than their age five years ago

is your answer wrong or is it right?
If I got chemo tonight
chances are that I might
odds of surviving this are slight
and I think im probly gonna die
this is 100% verifiable truth. Jobs knew of his cancer for fucking ages, could have had it dealt with via surgery and been fine. But went with new age medicine to try and good vibes the cancer away: forbes.com

Whose going to replace Trebek after he kicks the bucket?
It's going to be Steve Harvey, isn't it?
Jobs had a rare type of pancreatic cancer which was a neuroendocrine tumor. It tends to be slower growing and has better survival.
Jobs did try to cure his cancer by some weird vegan diet bullshit or something for months to a year before getting surgery.
The problem is, you can't really tell in hindsight if he would have lived anyway, however his chances likely would have been higher had he gotten real treatment immediately instead of waiting.
That said, jobs also went the full mile potentially illegally when he got a very fast liver transplant, thinking that the cancer was gone. However, you need to suppress the immune system to maintain transplants, which means if there was cancer left over, the body would not be able to attack it or find it as easily with Natural Killer cells. He might have actually fucked up his long-term survival there too.
Though, that last part is conjecture because while he did get a transplant, his meds records and stuff were never released.
tl;dr You really don't know, but he would have had a better shot with early Tx.
Anderson Cooper was on the short list last time Trebek was considering retirement. Said he would take the job if offered. He has also competed and won on Celebrity Jeopardy.
>the form of pancreatic cancer from which Jobs suffered (a neuroendocrine islet tumor) was one of the 5% or so that are slow growing and most likely to be cured.
This is the part that kind of pisses me off desu. This guy got gift wrapped an uncommonly good prognosis for a type of cancer that's supposed to be death sentence, and he still pissed it away because he thought he was too good and too smart for the process. that kind of narcissism and stubbornness probably resulted in his success to some degree, maybe it's fitting it also ended up being the death of him, as horrible as that sounds
>jobs caught his unusually early and a relatively simple surgery could have rendered him cancer free...is there any truth to that?
nah you have a misunderstanding. Job's had a rare form of pancreatic cancer called PNET, or pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. This means the cancerous cells are endocrine in origin, like the kind which produce insulin and glucagon for your body.
This form of cancer is rare. What most people mean when they say "pancreatic cancer" is a cancer of the EXOcrine pancreas rather than the ENDOcrine pancreas. These cancers are much more aggressive and have much higher mortality rates.
PNETs respond very well to treatment, and it's true that Job's opted for more "natural remedies" which were obviously ultimately ineffective.
anyway wishing the best for my dude Alex. GOAT host on the GOAT gameshow.

Fuck man, pancreatic cancer is a death sentence. Something like a 1% chance for a 3 year survival rate.
Fuck, why couldn't it have been Kenny Omega or one of the Young Bucks

all those questions i pretended to know

but now i'm heading towards the white light
Is there a torrent archive that doesn't skip episodes? I'm trying to find a bunch but there are gaps in the ones I find.
Modern medicine gives under 3% survival for Stage 4 pancreatic, and that is simply to live 5 years not cure it. This is the American Cancer Society statistics.
In actually, weeks to months is the most common survival time for advanced pancreatic Cx.
the gay nigger from true blood died??
how long ago?
Best case scenario, he's type one diabetic for the rest of his life.
I guess this is why he announced he was retiring in 2020.
What episodes are you looking for? Just search for the day of the episode you want to see on the Jeopardy subreddit. Should be a thread for each day that has a google drive or dailymotion link to the episode in comments.
hang in there user
spend more time with her too before its too late

well you can be assured of the fact that, as sad as it is, trebek is just going through what a lot of old men end up going through. cancer really isn't a young person's disease, unless you have a specific genetic predisposition. even if you do end up getting cancer one day, it will in all likelihood happen once you've already lived a long and full life anyway.
the only hope for a person with stage IV pancreatic cancer is a Whipple procedure, a very invasive surgery with a very high mortality rate. They are not going to perform this on a guy in his late 70s. Even those who undergo a successful WP only have a 5-year survival rate of 25%.
RIP Trebek
78 is not a bad age to die after all.
Is there a way to transfer Alex's cancer to me?? I'll gladly take it to save him
see but this kind of looks like kramer is giving props to someone
Will she attend the funeral?
I understand some patients can be candidates for the Whipple, but how exactly is that going to address the mets?
My grandpa just died from stomach cancer in the span of literally a month. He went from light jogging and showing off how strong he was at 96 late January this year to losing dozens of lbs and succumbing to his disease just last week. The craziest thing was that he was just diagnosed February. That's how fast cancer fucks up your body. Rest in peace gramps. Anyways, hopefully Trebek gets through this because it gets bleak extremely quick

My grandmother had the same around 81. She always had so much energy and we had a big celebration for her 80th birthday. Never would have expected her to get stomach cancer or even die. It hit me so hard to say goodbye for one last time.
i think what you have heard is bullshit
sciencedaily.com
>Pancreatic cancer patients 65 or older who live five years after surgery have nearly as good a chance as anyone to live another five years. Researchers reviewed records of 890 pancreatic cancer patients who over a 30 year-period underwent surgery. They found 23 percent lived five years after surgery, half of whom were 65 or older. Some 65 percent lived another five years compared to 87 percent in the general population at age 70.

a beautiful tribute
this would be great
Fun Fact - If you get a cancer check before you have any symptoms, you only increase your odds of survival by a couple of % if they do find a bad cancer, but you dramatically increase your odds of receiving unnecessary and debilitating treatments.
Statistically, if you are over 30 you probably have some kind of cancer in your body, that's just how cell reproduction works. But the majority of them won't ever hurt you, or will be benign, or will eventually be destroyed by an immune response.

You're here forever.
If you cure cancer then all those fancy machines that send radiation to your body and all those companies who make procedures to slow cancer down will go out of business and we can't have that. It's more profitable if Cancer never gets cured.

Jeopardy! is the one constant stable thing I’ve had my whole life. I know stage 4 pancreatic cancer is an omae wa mou shindeiru deal, but if anyone can beat this I pray that it’s him.
What is 1% survival rate for 200 Alex
it's called DCA
My father has been in remission for a few years now from stage 4 lung cancer. It was extremely rough for him for a while but at this point he's been back to work for years and works a pretty physically demanding job while doing shit like farming on the side as a hobby. Usually stage 4 is a pretty definitive sign that it's not going to end well but there's still chances.
pogchamp
My dad is doing extraordinarily well after only 6 rounds of chemo. His in-situ tumor is gone and all the metastases are dying/dead. He's trying off-label paricalcitol along with the chemo, and our oncologist is blown away at the results we've had. He's literally never seen results like these before.
No he's right. Older folks don't take the chemo as well as the young and generally have a weaker immune system.
They don't do Whipple on stage 4 cancer. At least not in America, maybe in China they do.
look up DCA user
seriously
Very not true. I read about one woman with stage 4 that is 20 years post diagnosis
Except Steve Jobs was a literal retard hippy. They found it when he still could've been saved with treatment but instead decided to just eat apples and drink bong water while his body rotted.
>No he's right. Older folks don't take the chemo as well as the young and generally have a weaker immune system.
It is true that older folks don't respond as well and can't handle the rigors of chemo as much as well as younger people. However, that doesn't matter in cancers which have extensive mets. Dead is dead. The reason there is pretty much a zero five year survival rate is that even if initial and secondary chemo work pancreatic cancer has pretty much a 100% recurrence rate. Remission =/= cured, it is simply in an undetectable stage, but it will come back more resistant.
It is the same thing that happens with brain tumors. They will be completely "gone," as in no visible tumor and normal tumor markers, but then they will always come back and that's usually RIP.
This is pretty basic pathophysiology with neoplasms.
But wouldn't the company that finds the cure first be able to make money off it first? Or would it be a penicillin situation where the founder disregards that for the betterment of mankind?
If she's so damned smart, why doesn't she come up with a cancer cure pdq?
She's 17, homeschooled, and half Asian. Give her time.
It'll be a minority and/or woman
And I don't know half of you you half as well as I should like and I l like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
>The reason there is pretty much a zero five year survival rate is that even if initial and secondary chemo work pancreatic cancer has pretty much a 100% recurrence rate
I'm in pharmacy school, I've been taught oncology already. Any stage 4 cancer is difficult to maintain yes, but I would argue that's not why stage 4 pancreatic has such shit survival rates.
The pancreatic tumor grows in a very hypoxic and nutrient-deficient environment. From the get-go it's already an extremely adaptable cancer. And on top of this, it utilizes the pancreatic stellate cells to form a wall against the rest of the body. Stellate cells block chemo and immune cells from entering the tumor, while also feeding growth factors to the tumor itself.
On top of that, pancreatic has a high average age of diagnosis, with 2/3 of patients being over 65. That doesn't help with survival rates. Furthermore, pancreatic has pretty shit clinical trial participation - so we're using chemo that only works for some of the population
Another reason is that pancreatic cancer makes use of kras mutations, which is something we've yet to make a drugs for. Kras is like the holy grail of cancer treatment targets right now.
All of these factors combined make for a shitty survival rate, what you described can loosely be applied to any metastatic cancer.
this
I'll defer to you since you are well above me at this point in knowledge of mechanisms and metabolic pathways. That said I wasn't trying to delve into too many specifics with my post, but my training in path is going to be well under yours until grad school, and probably forever for pharm.
In all seriousness, I wish him the best and I hope he beats it.
F
Keep your head up man, you never know where you'll end up. Those med chem guys really know their shit ha
I get what you're saying, but do keep this in mind: metastatic =/= death. Yes, metastasis can come back (they don't always), but if the patient is diligent to get scans for the rest of their lives, they can catch them each time they do at an early stage. And on top of that, if the metastasis is discovered > 6 months of their last dose of chemo, then they can likely just use the same chemo again as it will likely not be resistant. Essentially it turns into a lifelong intermittent struggle, much like COPD or heart failure or HIV.
