Lymphoma
In November 1998, a 75 year old Japanese patient had surgery to remove her left breast due to primary malignant lymphoma. She then received hormone therapy in six cycles and completed it at the end of April 1999. The patient had a local recurrence, which was found by an ambulatory medical examination in June 1999. Tumor marker CA 15-3 was 85U at that time.

Ovarian Cancer
This is an interesting case of combination therapy using chemotherapy and Rice Bran Arabinoxylan Compound (RBAC) together, which resulted in a shortening of the period of complete clinical remission to only two months. It would normally take 3 to 4 months, on average, to heal a patient with cystadenoma solely with chemotherapy. A female patient was 53 years old when she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer on February 11, 1993. Her clinical symptoms included swelling of the breasts and abdominal distention. Pathological findings were high-grade serous papillary cyst adenocarcinoma in areas of undifferentiation and frequent mitosis...
Diabetes
History of Past Diseases and Treatments: In June 1993, the patient realized that he had been getting up several times during the night to urinate and felt like drinking water frequently because of a constant thirst. He went to the hospital for an examination and was diagnosed with diabetes. His blood sugar level was 320 mg/dl. In September of that year, he was hospitalized and began to receive treatment. His blood sugar level did not decrease until March 1994, when he was discharged. The recovery was delayed because he developed hepatopathy, a possible complication from diabetes. He continued treatment with insulin injections at hospital visits but the fatigue did not disappear. He also had occasional attacks of asthma and was feeling worse...
Diabetes

Diabetes
History of Past Diseases and Treatments: In the middle of November, 1996, the patient went to a nearby hospital and presented with abnormal fatigue. His blood sugar level was 300 mg/dl and his glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) level was 9.8, so he was diagnosed with diabetes. He also had complications from the disease; he was aware that he had been eating too many sweets since the summer, but he attributed it to his fatigue. For the next month, he was put on a restricted diet and therapeutic exercise that consisted of one hour of fast walking, but these therapies were not successful. Because he was told that he had no choice but to undergo treatment with insulin, he went to K Hospital for additional treatments...
Hepatitis B
The clinical effectiveness of Rice Bran Arabinoxylan Compound (RBAC) in immunotherapy for patients with hepatitis B: Dr. Tran Thi Minh Phuong (Former Vice Dean of the Gastroenterology Department)
Abstract: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a serious global health problem with devastating consequences of chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. More efficacious treatments such as mass immunization programs and safe injection techniques are essential for eliminating HBV infection and reducing global HBV-related morbidity and mortality.

Rapports de cas de patients cancéreux
Rapports de cas de patients cancéreux avec métastases hépatiques traités au moyen de préparations immunomodulaires de plantes standardisées. Tibor Hajto et Angelika Kirsch
Le carcinome hépatocellulaire métastatique se manifeste souvent par une tumeur multifocale associée à une fonction hépatique notablement réduite. Dans de nombreux cas le bénéfice résultant d’une résection hépatique ne dure pas longtemps. Les tumeurs hépatiques disparaissent rarement complètement après la chimiothérapie et la durée des réponses est courte. Ces dernières décennies démontrent de plus en plus qu’un trouble de l’équilibre du système inné contribue au faible pronostic des tumeurs hépatiques...
