Huaier granules for lowering tumor markers in breast cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests whether a traditional Chinese herbal medicine called Huaier granules can help lower tumor marker levels in the blood of people who have been treated for breast cancer. Tumor markers are substances that can indicate whether cancer is present or active; lowering them may be a sign that the cancer is under control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
