In this study, researchers from Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine evaluated the effects of an herbal formula called zuo jin wan (ZJW) on gastric cancer (GC) cells and examined its mechanism of action. The results of their study were published in the Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that combining chemotherapy with ZJW is an effective therapeutic strategy for patients with chemoresistant GC.
