At once Medicine of East and West have the same purpose in treating, but there is a difference between the method of medical care and the view/slant on a disease each other. In the East Medicine, It is very difficult to explain the concept of Hwalhyulhwau but it is one of the way to cure cancer for long time. Be based on the theory of the East Medicine, research single medicine's anti-cancer effect among the natural products that has anti-cancer function. Moreover, for the purpose of finding new way to cure and prevent against cancer, we, the researchers, divided into four groups for this research: Group one: survey new substance with anti-cancer effects from natural products. Group two: research of anti-cancer mechanism through the experimental studies. Group three: research of immune responses in anti-canncer effects from natural products. Group four: research of the inhibitory effect on metastasis through the anti-angiogenesis. From the above results, we blended efficacious medidcines against cancer and made new prescriptions of Soam-I and Soam-II. Now, we are studying on these new prescriptions. We speculate that Soam-I and Soam-II may be used for a new conceptional anticancer therapy.
