If this kind of patent is useless, why they have gotten it in China, Japan and Austalia? In fact, it means, that everyone in USA will have a right to use this method of Cancer treatment in their clinics.
I am not saying it is useless and we will get a process patent. 90% honor a patent product or process. The other 10% do not care if there is a patent they will copy it.

It seems like yes. If there is literally no any defense from such patent, because you needjust to add something to the process to use it, why they need to spend money for that?
There is a defense. Guard the treatment well. Only share it with people who have signed NDAs

As for me, I hear about propriety trade secret for the first time. Can you explain how it can save you treatment from thieves?
If someone copies our treatment as a result of learning it from us or somewhere else, we can take them to court and if we prove that we have diligently protected our proprietary trade secret and we win and court award damages to us, tradesecret laws make the losing party pay 3x the awarded damages. So if we win for example a $20 million court case, the losing party will have to pay (3x) or $60 million. It is a very big deterent.
