Abstract: Many potential causes of cancer have been identified, and many attempts have been made to inhibit cancer initiation and progression. It is argued here that cancer prevention will not be possible until unique and primary mechanism(s) that direct cells to undertake cancerous division are identified, and until the ways of inhibiting such mechanisms are found. It has been suggested many years ago that cancer is a preventable disease [1]. PubMed search for “cancer and prevention†, performed on 5 February, 2018, gave 202,297 publications, indicating that a substantial research efforts are being made in this area. How realistic is cancer prevention?
