摘要

As cancer rates rise globally

standard care is being questioned; new approaches involving immune therapies are emerging. With this shift comes a corresponding shift in the use and potential of herbal medicines and extracts. The focus of this article

which has evolved from a presentation at the Second Beijing International Symposium on Integrative Medicine (BISIM May 19–20

2012)

is particularly on Chinese medicine

but is generalizable to Eastern medicine more broadly and to other herbal traditions. Until recently

herbal and related treatments have been used as adjuvants to conventional care — for reducing side-effects

enhancing cytotoxicity

and sometimes

undesirably counteracting the efficacy of chemotherapy and radiation. Now

in the context of a new class of immune-based cancer therapies

herbal and other complementary modalities are looked at as enhancers of the body’s immunity.
