New Research - Mistletoe Extract

[Harry Hirsute]

LUGANO, SWITZERLAND -- July 9, 2007 -- Use of a fermented mistletoe extract (MEx; Iscador®) in long-term supportive care in hospitals and private practices demonstrated significant survival benefit and improvements in quality of life for patients with surgically treated primary, nonmetastatic colorectal carcinoma and for patients with all-stages pancreatic carcinoma, when combined with adjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy or passive aftercare in two multicentre, controlled, retrospective, epidemiological, observational, cohort studies.

These findings were presented here on July 7th at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Conference.
