Abstract in brief

  • A Phase Ia clinical trial tested Boswellia serrata (frankincense extract) on breast cancer patients before surgery, showing it can reduce tumor cell growth without serious side effects.
  • Patients treated with Boswellia serrata experienced a significant decrease in tumor proliferation compared to untreated controls, as shown by tissue analysis.
  • The study indicates that Boswellia serrata is safe and may have potential as a supplementary therapy to inhibit breast cancer proliferation.]
