In the fight against aggressive prostate cancer, researchers are discovering that what’s old is new again.

Cork tree bark, an herbal remedy that’s been around for centuries, is being studied as a way to shrink prostate tumors.

Professors Kumar and Patel say human trials incorporating cork tree bark in tumor treatment should begin within the next year.
