CALM YIV-906
YIV-906 (PHY906, KD018) is an oral form of a spray-dried aqueous extract of four herbs, which have been used in the Orient for more than 1800 years for a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms including diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Extensive clinical and pre-clinical research has been done indicated that YIV-906 may have synergistic anticancer activities as well as GI toxicity reduction to cancer treatments, including sorafenib. The proposed plan will investigate the efficacy and mechanisms of YIV-906 as an adjuvant to sorafenib in the treatment of patients with Hepatitis B(+)-associated advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
