Ivermectin, a potential anticancer drug derived from an antiparasitic drug

Ivermectin has powerful antitumor effects, including the inhibition of proliferation, metastasis, and angiogenic activity, in a variety of cancer cells. This may be related to the regulation of multiple signaling pathways by ivermectin through PAK1 kinase. On the other hand, ivermectin promotes programmed cancer cell death, including apoptosis, autophagy and pyroptosis . Ivermectin induces apoptosis and autophagy is mutually regulated. Interestingly, ivermectin can also inhibit tumor stem cells and reverse multidrug resistance and exerts the optimal effect when used in combination with other chemotherapy drugs.

Ivermectin and Gynecologic Cancer: No Clinical Evidence Yet, Only Preclinical Signals Found

In vitro studies suggest that ivermectin can potentiate cytotoxicity when combined with paclitaxel or statins in chemo resistant ovarian cancer cell lines. One cell line showed up to 25% reduced viability. However, these findings have not been validated in animal models or human subjects.

Mechanisms proposed include mTOR pathway and PAK1 inhibition—pathways implicated in some gynecologic tumors. But the evidence remains theoretical.

Toxicity concerns are non-trivial: ivermectin interacts with warfarin , may cause encephalopathy at high doses, and lacks pharmacokinetic clarity in oncology regimens.

Off-label dosing beyond FDA-approved antiparasitic indications is experimental and untested in cancer patients.

Patient Zero Comes Back From Stage Four Cancer: Was Cure Due to Ivermectin?

After ten rounds of radiation and six of chemotherapy, Paul Mann, fifty-five years old, wanted to know his chances.  You’re squeaking by day to day,  his doctor told him. It had been five months since his diagnosis. He was referred to a hospice service and seen by a minister. Then he talked to a doctor who treated cancer and brought up Ivermectin. It had few side effects, and had been shown in laboratory and animal  studies  to kill several kinds of cancer cells. He started taking it daily and after 2 months was cancer free. Others have also had this experience, but no finished clinical trial data exist to date.

Fenbendazole

Is Fenbendazole a Miracle Drug for Cancer? (appears yes)

Ovarian Cancer: The  natural  form of fenbendazole appears to significantly halt the growth of chemosensitive and chemoresistant ovarian cancer cells. It showed promising results in vitro but it did not work in vivo due to its insolubility in water. To overcome this issue, fenbendazole was combined with nanoparticles to make it water-soluble. Testing of the new version shows good results both in vivo and in vitro including mouse models. 

Breast Cancer: Study results demonstrated that it induced high oxidative stress in highly metastatic breast cancer cells. In normal breast cells, on the other hand, the drug suppressed oxidative stress.  This is evidence of the drug’s potential anti-breast cancer effect.

Lymphoma: Study shows that fenbendazole only kills cancerous cells while showing minimal toxicity on normal cells.

Colorectal cancer: It significantly reduced the growth of these cells by cell cycle arrest, p53 activation and apoptosis.  The Korean study authors recommended it.

Leukemia: It was observed that this drug is involved in the production of reactive oxygen species ( ROS ), thus inducing apoptosis among cancerous cells. 

Examining Dr. John Campbell's Take on Fenbendazole as a Cancer Treatment: Between Hope and Reality

  TrialSite   has conducted a fairly comprehensive review   of the evidence and has found a handful of small early-stage human trials that show some promise.

Can Fenbendazole Treat Cancer? What’s the Actual Evidence To Date?

According to the cancer research organization AntiCancer Research, the anti-cancer activity of fenbendazole has been studied across many cell lines, demonstrating anti-tumor effects against multiple cancer types. Additionally, fenbendazole has shown efficacy against 5-FU, paclitaxel, and docetaxel-resistant cancer cells. A scan of online social networks such as X and others and many rave about the potential of this drug.  Similar to many chemotherapy drugs, fenbendazole can fight cancer cells, but with less toxicity and fewer adverse effects for patients .

 

Several individuals, particularly in online forums or self-experimentation contexts, have claimed that taking fenbendazole has helped their cancer regress or stabilize. One well-known case is that of Joe Tippens, a cancer patient who popularized the use of fenbendazole after claiming it helped him recover from a terminal cancer diagnosis. But no clinical trials on humans so not approved by FDA.

 

 

Fenbendazole’s anticancer mechanisms

At least twelve anticancer mechanisms of fenbendazole have been proven, according to  research papers  and review articles. Those sources demonstrated that the drug can inhibit the growth of cells in breast cancer,  lymphoma  (cancer of the lymphatic system),  leukemia  (blood cancer),  glioblastoma  (brain cancer), lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (type of liver cancer), ovarian cancer, rhabdomyosarcoma (tumor in skeletal muscle tissue), and  urothelial carcinoma  (cancer in the urinary tract).

Oral Fenbendazole for Cancer Therapy in Humans and Animals

  This review focuses on the pharmacokinetics of orally administered fenbendazole and its promising anticancer biological activities, such as inhibiting glycolysis, down-regulating glucose uptake, inducing oxidative stress, and enhancing apoptosis in published experimental studies. Additionally, we evaluated the toxicity profile of fenbendazole and discussed possibilities for improving the bioavailability of the drug, enhancing its efficacy, and reducing potential toxicity. Given the low cost of fenbendazole, its high safety profile, accessibility, and unique anti-proliferative activities, fenbendazole would be the preferred benzimidazole compound to treat cancer. Clinical trials should be implemented ASAP.

 

Fenbendazole and anthelmintics in Treatment of Cancer

A cancer survivor who beat cancer using Fenbendazole says there should be clinical trials to use in assessing such use. But she says in the world we live in no such clinical trial will be funded by the Pharmaceuticals or health authorities. So you have to use your best judgement of the cases and information available.

MEBENZADOLE

Fenbendazole belongs to the benzimidazole class of drugs, which includes mebendazole, another dewormer being explored for its anticancer properties. Unlike fenbendazole, mebendazole has undergone limited clinical trials and has shown promise in certain cancers, particularly glioblastoma. Research suggests that mebendazole disrupts cancer cell metabolism and interferes with microtubule formation which is essential for cell division.

While mebendazole has more documented evidence in human cancer care, its data remains preliminary, and further studies are needed to confirm its potential.  

 

AI Overview

Mebendazole, an antiparasitic drug, is being explored for its potential in cancer treatment, with some promising results from research and clinical studies.

How Mebendazole May Fight Cancer:

Disrupts cancer cell structure: Mebendazole inhibits tubulin polymerization, a process vital for cell division and transport, causing cancer cells to collapse.

Reduces inflammation: This can help slow cancer progression.

Induces apoptosis (cancer cell death): It triggers programmed cell death in cancer cells.

 

 

How Mebendazole Could Revolutionize Non-Traditional Cancer Care

 

Mebendazole as a Candidate for Drug Repurposing in Oncology: An Extensive Review of Current Literature

  Several in vitro studies suggest that MBZ inhibits a wide range of factors involved in tumor progression such as tubulin polymerization, angiogenesis, pro-survival pathways, matrix metalloproteinases, and multi-drug resistance protein transporters. Mebendazole not only exhibits direct cytotoxic activity, but also synergizes with ionizing radiations and different chemotherapeutic agents and stimulates antitumoral immune response. In vivo, MBZ treatment as a single agent or in combination with chemotherapy led to the reduction or complete arrest of tumor growth, marked decrease of metastatic spread, and improvement of survival. Further investigations are warranted to confirm the clinical anti-neoplastic activity of MBZ and its safety in combination with other drugs in a clinical setting.

We show that MBZ treatment has dual use as a chemotherapeutic agent as well as blocking the hypoxia-induced phenotype that promotes chemoresistance.

 

CANCER CHOICES : Mebendazole or Fenbendazole

Mebendazole shows anticancer effects in preclinical (cell and animal) studies and some initial trials in humans. Fenbendazole also shows preclinical evidence of anticancer effects. However, some evidence also shows accelerated disease progression among people with advanced  gastrointestinal cancer.

MICROBIOME

The Microbiome and Cancer: How Gut and Tumor Microbes Shape Treatment Outcomes

It turns out the bacteria living inside you might be just as important as the drugs you’re given to fight cancer. A growing body of research shows that your microbiome, the trillions of microbes in your gut and even inside your tumors—can shape whether cancer treatment works, how bad the side effects get, and even how long you live. Certain gut microbeslike   Akkermansia muciniphila   and  Faecalibacterium   act like allies, helping the immune system kill tumors.

Microbiome Shapes Side Effects Too.

 

Antibiotics Harmful: One massive study of over 41,000 cancer patients showed those who took antibiotics before immunotherapy had   much worse survival   and higher rates of treatment failure.
