CANCER BIOTHERAPY
This is one of the most promising new approaches to cancer prevention and treatment and
offers great hope to cancer sufferers.
Biotherapy
is a therapy for anti-cancer, prevention of disease and
anti-ageing.
What is cancer biotherapy? What are its advantages?
It is a treatment which uses the body’s own immune system to fight cancer.
This therapy stabilizes and balances the body’s anti-cancer response by regulating certain aspects of the
natural anti-cancer
mechanism
of the body resulting in greater cancer prevention and
treatment.
This therapy has none of the toxic side-effects which result from the use of conventional treatments like
radiotherapy and chemotherapy and does not inhibit hemopoiesis – the formation of blood cells in the body.
Instead it enhances the body’s immune response.
Treatment
Principle
The aim of the treatment is to increase the quantity of T cells which
is a major
factor in the body’s defense against cancer and also to
strengthen the killing function of the T cells. In other words, it is reinforcing
the
anti-cancer army of the body and equipping it with more combative
power.
What is the clinical
effect of cancer biotherapy?
1) Biotherapy can increase the 5 years and 9 years survival rate
for pulmonary cancer.
The treatment results of 174 postoperative primary pulmonary
cancer patients from the Medical College of Japanese Chiba University were:
2)
Biotherapy can prevent the reoccurrence of liver cancer after
operation.
Shanghai Liver Cancer Research Institute adopted the use of biotherapy
for the prevention of postoperative recurrence of liver
cancer
in 41 patients. The results were:
The one year recurence rate in the routine therapy group was 17.1 % whereas
the one year recurence rate in the biotherapy group was
only 2.4 %, a very obvious difference.
Wuhan Tongji Hospital adopted the use of biotherapy for the prevention of
postoperative recurrence of brain glioma. The results
were:
The
biotherapy group (19 cases) Median
survival time 38
months
The
routine therapy group (20 cases) Median survival time 13
months. |
