VTV.vn - About 94 thousand people die from cancer in Vietnam every year. Vietnam’s number of deaths from cancer ranks 78 out of 172 surveyed countries.

This data was provided by the Vietnam National Institute for Cancer Control. To treat cancer, apart from traditional treatment methods such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, new methods have also been applied in Vietnam.

The Ho Chi Minh City Oncology Hospital also hopes that there will be more patients who will volunteer for the clinical trials so that researchers can review the safety and effectiveness of the cancer medicine extracted from Vietnamese plants.
