Not so sure this is news

I read about this five years ago. In fact, there was an article published in 2003 on modified citrus pectin doubling the progression time in prostate cancer patients. There doesn't seem to have been any publications since. I remember that they had planned to test it on breast cancer patients, but also my research indicated that the problem pectin is supposed to work against isn't a problem generally associated with her2 positive breast cancer.

Is this about pectin in a dietary form? How much? Conflict with chemo?
