Celebrity Claims Spark Spike in Unproven Cancer Drugs

The seven-month 2025 rate was about four per 100,000, roughly double 2024; clinicians caution that such use can delay proven therapies and cause toxicity or interactions. The uptick is linked to misinformation circulating on social media and podcasts, with the rise more pronounced among men, white patients, and in the U.S. South.
