All of those studies were either done on mice, petri dishes or haven't actually gone ahead with testing yet.
Clinical Trials. We have also initiated clinical trials in patients with pancreatic cancer. The protocol involves a dose escalation starting from 0.3 grams and moving up to 0.9 grams of sodium bicarbonate per day per kilogram of body weight (0.13 – 0.4 grams per pound per day). Patients are advised to measure their daily dose based on their body weight and dissolve it in 1 liter (1 quart) of water and to drink this throughout the day. Notably, some toxicities, such as nausea and vomiting, have been observed. This may be due to too much being ingested at a single time, as sodium bicarbonate in high doses can act as an emetic. Diarrhea is also a common side effect. At this time (July, 2011) we are working on two parallel tracks:
1. To improve the formulation – things we are trying include asking patients to ingest the doses more slowly and steadily throughout the day, going to an intravenous infusion in some patients, and altering the salt to Calcium carbonate, which is just as effective and may be more palatable. This last approach has to be approved by the FDA before we can move forward.
2. To develop high buffer diet recommendations, that can be used as an adjuvant to the supplemental buffers. This work is being written up for publication and will be deposited here following peer review. Once this is published, we will generate dietary guidelines for adjuvant therapy. In the meantime, stay away from acidic food products, such as soft drinks.

So they say. There's no paper attached to actually back up what is said in that link.

Five years of clinical trials? No results?

At this time (July, 2011) we are working on two parallel tracks:
Is there any surprise there are no results (published)? Will there ever be any results? Will there ever be a cure for cancer that the medical establishment will allow to go main stream? How many cures have been proven but buried away by the billions tossed around by the establishment, cures for cancer, diabetes, heart disease, kidneys, liver, etc.? How many? Just more Big Pharma treatment plans and that's it. People who expose them for the frauds they are, who expose the truth are demonized, set up and sent to prison when ever possible, for ridiculous things like tax fraud, mail fraud, etc. It's unbelievable and anyone who buys into this BS you skeptics try to lay out has no mind of their own to see what is so obvious. Enough said. And by the way, my father-in-law who drank a baking soda cocktail with molasses for three weeks when diagnosed with cancer in 2013 remains cancer free and was just told so by his doctors a week ago. He never received any conventional treatment for his cancer and yet he lives...

well i don't mean to stir the pot .. too much.
but there are certainly a lot of controversial information around cancer research and cures.
For instance this link has interesting information which could help many people with certain types of cancer, if it was more talked about and known in medical world?
is it valid?
i don't know but "here and there" available on the internet are all kinds of alternatives. Some of which, have been around for ages (above link), some which has helped some people and some...which are probably fake...
to think that medical field or any field of science know everything possible and make such definite conclusions as biologically impossible is limiting in my opinion.
but hey it is a bit how modern science works ... a lot of things were or are impossible until proven otherwise and until then... nope not even consider it?
well...that is the decision each cancer patient has to make his or her self.

thanks for your information, it is a valid opinion and i agree with you on some points... but not entirely.
in case of robust evidence there probably is not much out there, but there is evidence in many stories of healed people or alternative doctors and their patients who got better.
And that is the controversy i was implying, due to the internet we have free sharing available and that is in my opinion priceless.
personally i never cared much about official science and medical opinions, but i have respect for their work and knowledge...
i guess it is more of a question what kind of opinion holds value to you?
you maybe trust more what current medical or other sciences tells you, but i trust more what ordinary people say, due to personal experiences and anecdotes in life or internet...

i trust myself and my intuition.
not a doctor or faceless person behind a comment.
And i know there are some successful alternative treatments from personal stories...

hey it is okey, we will not get anywhere as i don't have anything constructive to say or add.
Mostly, i just wanted to share a link, maybe it will help someone somehow.
have a nice day!

What you've said is dangerous.. to try to tell people not to try treatments that work. It's reckless.
