This formula was developed by an expert in Gastric Cancer treatment. In a study of 489 cases of Gastric Cancer followed up for 8 years, it was shown to reduce recurrence in stage II and III cancers by 32% compared to chemotherapy alone. It was also found to be synergistic with 5-Fu. (See Research here)
