Coriolus versicolor polysaccharide peptide slows progression of advanced non-small cell lung cancer
Randomized trial
Abstract
In a double-blind placebo-controlled randomised trial of 68 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, 28 days of polysaccharide peptide (PSP) from Coriolus versicolor significantly improved leukocyte and neutrophil counts, serum IgG and IgM and reduced withdrawal due to disease progression, with no adverse reactions.
