NCT ID NCT07601113
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study follows 66 women with stage II/III breast cancer who received a natural supplement called PG2 (from astragalus root) alongside their standard chemotherapy. Researchers want to see if PG2 helps delay cancer recurrence or spread, and whether it improves survival. The goal is to learn if adding this immune-boosting therapy can offer long-term benefits for early breast cancer patients.
