NK Cell Activity

 
The immunomodulatory action of Biobran was examined in 25 cancer patients with different types of advanced malignancies undergoing treatment with conventional therapy. As a result of comparing their NK cell activity before and after the 6-month administration of Biobran, all participants experienced a boost in NK cell activity after administration.
