Ewan Cameron Papers, 1935-1997

2. Human Cancer Trials. 1978-1990.

This intriguing series details the cancer and vitamin C trials that Cameron carried out at the Vale of Leven Hospital in Scotland in collaboration with Linus Pauling and the Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine. The contents are divided into three subseries, organized according to experiment stage.

Boxes 2.001 to 2.016 hold the raw data generated by the experiments, including patient records, case histories and other preliminary data. Boxes 2.017 to 2.020 move into the later stages of the trials, and include final analyses and consequent manuscripts. Boxes 2.021 to 2.023 focus upon the controversy surrounding one of these resulting manuscripts, "Supplemental Ascorbate and Incurable Cancer," which was ultimately rejected for publication by The New England Journal of Medicine. This subseries also includes a manuscript of and correspondence regarding the book Vitamin C and Cancer: Medicine or Politics? by Evelleen Richards.
