In patients with advanced cancer, hydrogen inhalation can help control cancer progression and significantly improve quality of life. These are the findings of the world\u2019s first large-scale clinical study to assess the benefits of hydrogen therapy in cancer treatment.
\n82 patients with various types of cancer in stage 3 and 4, participated in the cited study.<\/p>\n
This real-world evidence study was conducted at Fuda Hospital of Jinan University from 2014 to 2018. The improvement in quality of life, of participants receiving hydrogen therapy, was assessed using the Core 30 questionnaire, of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of cancer.<\/p>\n
After 4 weeks of inhaling hydrogen, patients reported significant reductions in pain, fatigue, insomnia, and anorexia. In addition, almost half of the patients had an improved physical condition, with the best effect achieved in those suffering from lung cancer.
\nThe inhalations lasted for over 3 hours and were performed daily.<\/p>\n
Of the 58 cases with elevated one or more abnormal tumor markers, the levels of the elevated markers decreased significantly after an average of 23 days of hydrogen therapy. The greatest improvement in markers was observed in lung cancer patients. To a lesser extent, improvements were achieved in patients with pancreatic and liver cancer.<\/p>\n
Following hydrogen therapy, the overall disease control rate was 57.5% for 80 patients with tumors, visible on diagnostic imaging. Complete or partial remission in these patients was observed on average on the 55th day after the beginning of hydrogen inhalation
\nDisease control was significantly higher in stage 3 cancer patients \u2013 at 83%, compared to 36% in stage 4 patients.<\/p>\n
The overarching conclusion of this medical study is that hydrogen therapy can improve quality of life and control cancer progression in patients with advanced cancer. This, in turn, provides a strong rationale for further research on hydrogen therapy as a clinical rehabilitation strategy for those suffering from various types of cancer.<\/p>\n
Hydrogen inhalation is a relatively inexpensive and simple, supportive therapy with no or minimal side effects. Among the 29 patients treated with hydrogen inhalation alone, no hematological toxicity was observed. Five out of all 82 patients experienced various mild discomforts that spontaneously resolved within hours to days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
