I've been taking Vitamin C with my imatinib for a couple of years now and my PCR results have been pretty stable. I noticed these articles are from 2008.
A quote from the researchers: "These results suggest that supplementary vitamin C may have adverse consequences in patients who are receiving cancer chemotherapy. Such a supposition, however, would need confirmation in other therapeutic models or in human trials."
Has there been a human trial or any other confirmation of this research?
