Bastyr University Breast Cancer Research

A Cancer Therapy Beyond Drugs and Radiation?

The University of Minnesota and Bastyr University are conducting research to find out whether extract from the common Turkey Tail mushroom might boost and maintain the immune response after radiation therapy. This extract has been used in Asia with encouraging results. But before this promising therapy can be further explored in the U.S. we need to collect important information from women like you undergoing radiation therapy for breast cancer.

You could be eligibile if:

You have been diagnosed with stage I, II or III breast cancer
You have been or are receiving chemotherapy
You are scheduled to begin radiation therapy
You are between the ages of 21 and 75

Your participation may be the key.

Participants will be compensated $20 for each visit.
