EFFECTIVE THERAPY: Dr Lim Eng Hua giving his talk.

KUCHING: The Next Generation Photodynamic Therapy (NGPDT) is a revolutionary non-invasive cancer therapy that is safe, effective, fast and evidence-based.

It is the sixth generation in PDT (Photodymanic Therapy) and a brainchild of a group of scientists from Russia, Australia, Ireland and Sweden after nine years of research and development, continuous improvements and over USD$20 million in investments. According to International Cancer Therapy and Regenerative Medicine Centre CEO Dr Lim Eng Huat, the treatment does not involve surgery, chemotherapy or radiation, nor is there pain or side-effects.

“It is now the first choice for treatment for first to fourth stage and recurring cancer,” he said in a talk held at Kuching Mandarin Restaurant on Wednesday.

The talk was organised to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Sarawak Chung Hua Institute of Chinese Medicine. It was jointly organised by Malaysian Anti-Cancer Association, Miri Chinese Physician Association, Sarawak Herbal Association, Sarawak Acupuncture Society, Sarawak Professional Tabib Tiong Hua Association and Sarawak Traditional and Complementary Medicine Association.

Dr Lim said that NGPDT is an effective whole body treatment, applicable to nearly all types of cancer, except leukaemia.

He explained to an English-speaking audience of about 30 how the method utilises a photosensitiser which selectively accumulates cancer and diseased cells.

Specific wavelengths of light are then applied to activate the photosensitiser, creating a singlet of oxygen that destroys cancer and diseased cells, leaving the healthy cells unharmed.

“Cancer is a systemic disease that might recur over the next 1-3, 5-10 or even 20 years,” Dr Lim said.

“Even if patients possess unlimited wealth and power, it is extremely difficult for someone to go through more than two or three rounds of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation as this may eventually lead to toxin overload, partly damaged organs and impaired immune system.”

The treatment centre is based in Guangzhou Friendship Hospital. Those interested to learn more can visit ict-rmc.com or contact the Malaysian office at 03-78808811/03-7880887 (Dr Ang), 012-2102388 (Dr Lim), fax to 03-7880518 (Fax) or email to [email protected].
