Gulping down a glass of cranberry juice might greatly boost an ovarian cancer patient’s sensitivity to chemotherapy, a new study suggests.
In laboratory experiments, pre-treating ovarian tumor cells with the juice bumped up the cancer-killing power of drugs sixfold, researchers say.
The study authors stressed that the finding is still experimental and preliminary, but it could offer a new option for patients whose ovarian cancer has become resistant to treatment.
