various tumours or cancers.

What does it do?
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), many Chinese herbs have been reported to treat tumor cells
in various clinical settings. Tumoclear has a unique combination of the following
Chinese herbs.
Herba Sarcandrae (Zhong jie feng, Cao shan hu, Sarcandra glabra): Sarcandra has been used traditionally to disperse
pathogenic wind and remove blood stasis. Modern studies have revealed its antitumor properties.
It was shown to modestly inhibit the growth of the implanted S180 sarcoma or HepA tumor in mice and
prolong their survival. When administered together with chemotherapy drugs like CTX, 5-Fu, ADM or
radiotherapy 60Co, Sarcandra can increase their antitumor efficacy in the range of 11.17% to 39.80%.
In a small clinical trial of 14 acute leukemia patients with Sarcandra, 4 patients had a complete remission and 6 a partial
remission. Relapse was observed after the withdrawal of Sarcandra. No significant side effect was noticed during the trial. In
a separate trial of 373 patients with various late stage tumors using Sarcandra, 53.9% patients showed
improvement, of which 15.7% showed marked improvement. Among the types of cancers that better responded to the treatment
are pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer, and leukemia.1
Herba Scutellariae Barbatae (Ban zhi lian, Portulaca grandiflora): The Chinese herb Ban zhi lian
has been long used to treat various tumors in Chinese Medicine. In recent years it has been
shown to inhibit the growth of several lines of tumour cells in implanted mice and in petri dish.
In clinical studies, Chinese herbal formulas that include Ban zhi lian as a
major ingredient have been used with various successes in treating many types of malignant tumours such as
liver cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer, malignant ascites, and
breast cancer in Chinese hospitals.2 For example, in a trial involving 136 breast cysts, 44 (32%) showed
remission, 42 (31%) marked improvement, 30 (22%) improvement, 20 (15%) had no improvement.
No significant side effect was noticed. In USA, a Ban zhi lian herbal preparation is now being approved by FDA for phase II
trial of stage IV metastatic breast cancer, as reported in a Oct 15, 2007 Time magazine article.3
In an earlier trial, 21 stage IV metastatic breast cancer patients were treated with Ban zhi lian. After about a year,
25% of the patients showed stabilization in their disease for 90 days and 19% for 180 days.3
Herba Salviae Chinensis (Shi jian chuan): Salvia chinensis is another Chinese herb that is often
used in Chinese herbal medicines for treatment of cancers in China. It is normally included
in combination with other Chinese herbs. The types of cancers
treated include liver cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer,
and nasopharynx cancer. For example, in one study of 158 late stage stomach cancer, one
Salvia chinensis-containing herbal formula was used along with chemotherapy for 1 to 2 years,
the 3, 5, and 10 years' survival rate are 41.07%, 30.36% and 12.5% in the first group of 56 patients,
and the 3 years' survival rate is over 50% in the second group of 102 patients with the best
result seen in the combination with 5-Fu chemotherapy.
Semen Coicis Lachryma-Jobi (Yi yi ren, Job's tears, semen coicis): Coix is a maize-like seed traditionally
consumed in China and is often a component of anticancer Chinese herbal formulas in China. A Coix
preparation named Kanglaite is now among the best selling anticancer drugs in China. The Coix
preparation has been approved by FDA for a phase II trial to test its efficacy in treating
nonsmall-cell lung cancer in USA. Studies have suggested that the Coix preparation
may enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy and reduce side effects such as fatigue, nausea, and
hair loss, as discussed by a Science magazine news focus. 4

1. Female breast cancer patient, 45 years old. Blood test indicates a cancer cell index was as high
as 22. Patient came to my office for TCM treatment because she does not want to go through surgery
and chemotherapy treatment. I prescribed Tumoclear tablets for her to take orally and provided
acupuncture and Qi-gong treatments. Her tumor was reduced in size significantly and the cancer cell
index went down from 22 to 8. She has not undergone the excision surgery to date. Her condition is
under the control completely.

time to live by Western medicine doctors. She had to take morphine to reduce the agonizing pain but
with unsatisfactory results. After visiting our place, taking Tumoclear tablets and receiving
acupuncture and Qi-Gong treatments, she reported her pain was reduced greatly. Tumoclear does have
the analgesic and stabilizing effects. The patient eventually died after 9 months. Her family was
grateful that her pain was reduced and she passed away very peacefully.
