I assume this supplement is Graviola. There are no large scale human studies available on the herb. I found one study (cell line, not human or animal) on breast cancer and graviola.

Graviola extracts have also been shown to be effective against the growth of Adriamycin resistant human mammary adenocarcinoma (MCF-7/Adr) by blocking the cancer cell's access to ATP and by inhibiting the actions of plasma membrane glycoprotein (5).

Graviola may cause movement disorders with symptoms similar to Parkinson's.
