Methods and dosage forms for the treatment of human cancers

Abstract

Methods for the treatment of human cancers, daily dosage forms for cancer patients, and methods of formulating the dosage forms are provided wherein the daily dosage form contains from about 10-6,000 mg of each of β-sitosterol, isovanillin, and linolenic acid. Preferably, the dosage forms are formulated by first creating an aqueous decoction of Arum palaestinum Boiss, followed by fortification of the decoction with additional quantities of β-sitosterol, isovanillin, and linolenic acid.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This is a continuation of identically-titled U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12 / 905,847, filed Oct. 15, 2010, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention is directed to methods for the treatment of human cancers, daily dosage forms for administration to cancer patients, and methods of formulating such dosage forms. More particularly, the invention is concerned with the administration of daily dosage forms (e.g., aqueous mixtures, capsules, pills, or tablets) containing from about 10-6,000 mg of each of β-sitosterol, isovanillin, and linolenic acid. Such treatment provides a marked decline and / or elimination of cancerous tumors, particularly those of the bladder, breast, liver, and lung, and a corresponding enhancement of the wellness and lifestyles of the treated patients.[0004]2. Description of the Prior Art[0005]Cancer is a generic term f...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides an improved method for treating various human cancers, particularly female breast and lung cancers, by administering a dosage form containing β-sitosterol, isovanillin, and linolenic acid. The dosage form can be in the form of an aqueous dispersion, pill, or tablet. The method involves daily administration of the dosage form for at least 21 days, preferably until the cancer is eliminated or symptoms are ameliorated. The dosage forms are prepared by supplementing or fortifying plant decoctions with the required amounts of β-sitosterol, isovanillin, and linolenic acid. The goal is to provide the patient with the daily milligram amounts of each ingredient."

Problems solved by technology

Metastases are the major cause of death from cancer.

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide.

The overall risk accumulation is combined with the tendency for cellular repair mechanisms to be less effective as a person grows older.

Cervical cancer, which is caused by HPV, is a leading cause of cancer death among women in low-income countries.

In high-income countries, tobacco use, alcohol use, and being overweight or obese are major risk factors for cancer.

All of these techniques have significant drawbacks in terms of side effects and patient discomfort.

This can result in pain, diarrhea, constipation, mouth sores, hair loss, nausea, and vomiting.

However, the immune system does not always recognize cancer cells as “foreign.” Also, cancer may develop when the immune system breaks down or does not function adequately.

Despite the immense amount of worldwide research and efforts to stem the tide of cancer and its side effects, the disease in its many manifestations continues to be a huge problem.
