description <b>Background</b>: Over thirty years of basic research has demonstrated that the deuterium-to-hydrogen ratio plays a pivotal role in regulating metabolism and cell growth via a sub-molecular regulatory system that orchestrates the intricate complexity of life in eukaryotic organisms. Deuterium depletion, achieved through deuterium-depleted water (DDW), has shown anticancer effects in vitro, in vivo, and in Phase 2 prospective and retrospective clinical studies. <b>Methods</b>: In this population-based observational study, 2649 cancer patients undergoing conventional therapy and consuming DDW were included between October 1992 and October 2024. With various cancer types and stages and conventional therapies received, they are representing a broad spectrum of the Hungarian cancer population. Survival was selected as the primary endpoint, and the median survival time (MST) of these patients and various subgroups was calculated and compared to the overall Hungarian cancer population’s MST of 2.4 years. <b>Results</b>: For the entire study population, MST from diagnosis was 12.4 years (95% CI: 9.8–14.9), and from the initiation of DDW treatment, 7.6 years (95% CI: 5.9–9.3). <b>Conclusions</b>: Utilizing DDW enables targeted intervention in the sub-molecular regulatory system, paving the way for innovative therapeutic applications and a more profound understanding of cellular processes. Integrating deuterium depletion into conventional cancer therapies has the potential to significantly enhance survival rates and reduce cancer-related mortality by 75–80%.
