The '''Germanic New Medicine'''® (GNM) (also called formerly ''New Medicine'', ''German New Medicine'') is a pseudoscientific alternative medicine and registered trade mark in 2003 that appeared in Germany in 1981. Many hopeful cancer patients treated by this method died in the past, at least 140 (see details below). This method was invented by the german barred physician [[Ryke Geerd Hamer]], who has been prosecuted in several European countries for illegal medical practice. Hamer lives in southern Norway at present time. His address is his publishing company ''GERMANISCHE NEUE MEDIZIN FORLAG DR. HAMER'' Sandkollveien 11, N-3229 Sandefjord / Norway. In two different interviews given in September 2007 he declared that he fled from Spain to Norway in order to escape an arrest warrant from Germany for ''incitement of hatred against a minority of the population'' (article 130 of german criminal laws) as Hamer made many public statements in open letters and webpages againts jews and did accuse an international Jewish conspiracy (and in particular the New Yorker B'nai B'rith) of having killed two billion people by hiding the truth about the New Medicine which, he suggests, can heal 98% of all cancer cases.

The GNM has never been accepted by and is widely ignored by the scientific academic medicine of today and their principles contradict clearly principles of modern evidence-based medicine. There is however, no known interdiction of this controversial method. Hamer spreads his ideas in his books, published in his own publishing company ''Amici di Dirk'', via many different private webpages in the internet and by publications of some followers or associations linked to his doctrines.

According to its inventor Hamer, every disease of man, animal or plant is the result of a former not well-defined ''biological conflict'' obeying to only five so-called ''biological laws of nature'' he allegedly found and no scientist could find so far. Only effects of radiation and injuries are not the result of the presumed conflicts, Hamer adds in his statements.

The GNM is a mainly diagnostic construction and can be seen as a primitive reinvention of some concepts of earlier psychosomatic medicine, mixed with some proprietary, pseudoscientific and unvalidated tests and an grotesc erroneous interpretation of CT brain scans. Some of his ideas were proposed in the past (''cristian science'' or anthroposophic medicine...). What is usually called disease or symptom, is considered to be a ''sensible biological program'' (in german: ''sinnvolles biologisches Sonderprogramm'' as a reaction of an healthy organism to the alleged conflicts. According to Hamer's school, all severe diseases like cancer can be ''healed'' in 95% of all cases performing a so-called ''conflictolysis'' according to new medicine. Unsuccesses of his method or the death of patients are due to interventions of ''scolastic medicine'', the use of morphine or because the patient was not totally convinced by new medicine.

The inventor does not mention any literature supporting his ideas, some of his assertions remember however concepts in anthroposophical medicine and other concepts developed earlied than 1981. No prospective and scientifically controlled clinical trial has been made so far to show an eventual effectivness and no peer-reviewed articles in serious medical journals exist.
