How did Dr. Ernst T. Krebs, Jr. discover that B17 and/or Laetrile could cure or prevent cancer?

Krebs, Jr., a biochemist in San Francisco, had advanced the theory that cancer, like scurvy and pellagra, is not caused by some kind of mysterious bacterium, virus, or toxin but merely a deficiency disease, aggravated by the lack of essential food compounds in modern man’s diet. One of these essential food compounds is particularly prevalent in raw apricot seeds.
