vitamin C
Vitamin C infusion, as an alternative anticancer therapy, has been used for many years. In the last 10 years, an increasing number of studies have indicated that VitC in pharmacological concentration can selectively kill cancer cells. Phase I clinical trial showed that VitC(1.5g/kg, 90-120mins, 3 times a week) infusion is safe without significant adverse reactions. A phase II clinical trial indicated that large dose of vitC infusion can reduce toxic side effects from chemo drugs when it was used synergy with chemotherapy.
Modulated Electro-Hyperthermia (mEHT)
MEHT is a descendant of hyperthermia initially based on nano-thermal but not temperature-dependent effects of electromagnetic fields and special fractal modulation, whose effect could 3-4 times exceed the effect of the overall heating (macroscopic temperature elevation). MEHT does not require hyperthermia-range temperatures and could be performed safely without invasive thermal control. EHY-2000 local machine is used for mEHT in the trial.
Supportive care
Supportive care focuses on helping patients get relief from symptoms such as nausea, pain, fatigue, or shortness of breath,etc.
