China PharmaHub Corp. Introduces a 'Magic Bullet' Liver Cancer Therapy to China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia, and Bangladesh
Date:8/26/2010

therapy combats tumors in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), commonly known as primary liver cancer, who cannot be treated with surgery, and are awaiting an organ transplant.

As the exclusive distributor in the Greater China Region, Singapore, Malaysia and Bangladesh of this new form of liver cancer treatment, PharmaHub believes that the therapy offers a solution to the problem of malignant liver cancer in Southeast Asia where approximately three-quarters of the cases of liver cancer worldwide are found. China, alone, has the highest number of liver cancer patients worldwide, approximately one-half of the world HCC population, with more than 350,000 new cases diagnosed each year, a number that is expected by Management to continue to rise in the coming years.

Richard Lui, CEO of PharmaHub stated, "We are thrilled with this opportunity to take a leadership role in introducing this type of radioembolization treatment for inoperable liver cancer in China and Southeast Asia.
