Traditional Chinese Medicine Composition for Tumor Treatment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current treatments for malignant tumors, such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, face challenges with postoperative recovery and harmful side effects, highlighting the need for an anti-tumor drug with significant efficacy and minimal side effects.
Innovation Solution
A traditional Chinese medicine composition is developed using a specific blend of herbs like Sophora flavescens, wild chrysanthemum flower, honeysuckle, mint, Poria cocos, Atractylodes lancea, cinnamon, clove, Astragalus, Ganoderma lucidum, Ligusticum striatum, Aucklandia root, and Radix glycyrrhizae, processed through ethanol percolation and decoction to create a compound powder, offering a potential anti-tumor treatment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy is used to treat malignant tumors, then tumor removal or control is achieved, but postoperative recovery is difficult or harmful side effects occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a composite traditional Chinese medicine formulation containing multiple herbal components (sophora flavescens, wild chrysanthemum flower, honeysuckle, mint, poria cocos, atractylodes lancea, cinnamon, clove, astragalus, ganoderma lucidum, ligusticum striatum, aucklandia root, and radix glycyrrhizae) to achieve anti-tumor effects while reducing side effects through synergistic interactions among the herbs
Solution Approach 2:
The patent optimizes the weight percentage ratios of different herbal ingredients in the formulation, with specific ranges provided for each component (e.g., sophora flavescens 3%-12%, wild chrysanthemum flower 5%-15%), to achieve the optimal balance between anti-tumor efficacy and side effect reduction
2Reliability
If conventional anti-tumor drugs are developed to treat increasing tumor patients, then treatment effectiveness is improved, but toxic side effects increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent converts the potentially harmful concentrated dosing requirement into a benefit by using multiple herbal components that work synergistically at lower individual doses, reducing overall toxicity while maintaining or improving anti-tumor effectiveness
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the dosing parameters by providing specific weight percentage ranges for each herbal ingredient, allowing for optimized dosing that achieves therapeutic effects with minimal toxic side effects
