• Conclusion and Key Takeaways

Editor's Preface

We began this article with just a handful of cases, but it has since expanded to include over 50 case reports from diverse sources.

“The cure for cancer? It all started with a single case study.”

Let’s start with the mainstream perspective—the one you’ve likely heard from conventional cancer specialists or major media outlets:

• We need larger, high-quality studies before making formal recommendations.
• There is no evidence that ivermectin works, or its effectiveness is unproven.
• There are no randomized controlled trials.
• This is ‘false hope.’ If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

You may have discovered this article through a social media link rather than mainstream news or major search engines. Why is that?

Unlike traditional platforms, social media allows the rapid sharing of niche or underrepresented stories—giving content like this a chance to reach those who might otherwise miss it.

When diagnosed with cancer, most people rely on discussions with family members and doctors. However, they often encounter conflicting recommendations—some professionals support exploring ivermectin, while others strongly oppose it.

So, what’s fact and what’s fiction? The answer depends on science and research. However, science can be biased, manipulated, or selectively presented to fit a particular narrative. That’s why it’s crucial to do your own research in consultation with a trusted doctor. Many media references rely on outdated studies or cherry-picked data that align with a specific viewpoint.

The Case for a Precautionary Approach

According to The Cochrane Review’s editor-in-chief, Karla Soares-Weiser (source):

“Lack of evidence of effectiveness is not evidence that the interventions are ineffective… Waiting for strong evidence is a recipe for paralysis. Public health officials must take measured gambles, based on circumstantial evidence from the reviewed studies and other sources. When protecting the public from harm, they must act even when evidence is uncertain (or not of the highest quality), particularly when the harms and costs of such action are likely limited.”

Even if the chance of ivermectin and fenbendazole helping is small, individuals have the right to explore it as an option.

Dr. John Campbell, a health educator with over 3 million YouTube followers, shared (video) a compelling perspective in his video on fenbendazole and ivermectin for cancer:

“People have the right to try. They could try these drugs... and we could track them over time. We could build national cohorts of tens of thousands of patients in no time… then hand it over to statisticians to analyze the data and uncover the mathematical truth. This could be done, and in my view, it should be done.”

Real Stories, Real Hope

The testimonials you are about to read are from individuals who have bravely shared their experiences in the hope of inspiring and uplifting others. These are raw, unfiltered accounts—not peer-reviewed studies—but they offer insights that may be valuable to those searching for options.

It’s important to acknowledge that the Ivermectin and Fenbendazole protocol is not a universal cancer cure.

We are not here to advocate for or against any treatment—whether conventional (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy) or alternative approaches. Our focus is on effective and safe strategies that may offer hope and improved outcomes.

This article is not meant to be your final guide, but rather a step in your journey toward better health. We encourage you to seek out additional resources, ask questions, and explore all available options.

A Final Word of Encouragement

If you have stage 4 cancer, don’t lose hope. Your story could be the next inspiring success.

“N=1 is the future.” – Michael Snyder, Stanford Medicine (The Epoch Times)

Instead of relying solely on large-scale studies, case reports focus on individuals—allowing people to directly assess how specific interventions affect their unique health profiles. As Snyder told The Epoch Times,

“We are all different, and now we can collect a lot of data on a single person or a few individuals to make very specific recommendations.”

In the end, science evolves. Until then, the right to try belongs to you.

Introduction

Ivermectin and its potential role in cancer treatment have sparked significant interest online. Through our research, we've observed that most studies available are preclinical, with a notable lack of published clinical studies. To assist with further investigation, we have compiled and categorized case reports by cancer type in one place.

This collection serves as a resource for researchers and those exploring Ivermectin's potential applications. However, it's vital to consult with qualified medical professionals regarding any treatment decisions.

While conventional medical professionals often regard case reports as anecdotal or lower-quality evidence, they generally prioritize large, double-blinded, randomized placebo-controlled trials (RCTs) as the gold standard. We acknowledge that RCTs provide stronger evidence. 

Still, the potential benefits of Ivermectin, coupled with its comparatively low risk profile and cost, warrant serious consideration and further exploration.

Ivermectin Case Reports Compilation

Below is the list categorised by different cancer types, alphabetically.

1. Basal Cell Carcinoma and Melanoma: Ivermectin and Fenbendazole

The patient, a 60 year old male with a history of nodular basal cell carcinoma on the chest and melanoma on the ring finger, started the protocol approximately 4 weeks prior to reporting. The patient's diet was also modified to be mostly organic, low carb, and vegetable-centric, while monitoring systemic acid/base balance using urine pH strips. The patient also applied a 10% ivermectin and fenbendazole topical cream on the affected areas.

Progress:

Days 1-10: No notable changes.

Day 11: Inflammation and severe itching observed on the back of the hand and a 1x3 inch area above the basal cell. Oozing of clear amber liquid noted.

Day 15: The pink spot on the ring finger darkened, transformed into a bump, and the whole area became swollen and red.

Day 30+: The skin on the red oozing areas began sloughing off and was replaced by tender pink "baby skin." The chest basal cell shrank only slightly, and the hands and chest began healing.

Additional Treatments: The patient applied c-herb to the ring finger, resulting in a tiny hole where the dark spot/bump used to be. The chest basal cell was also treated next with c-herb. Timing of these additions is unclear.

Outcome: Both the chest lesion and the ring finger lesion disappeared, leaving craters in their places - the tumor on the chest wholly detached and fell off. The patient treated the craters with sangre de grado, and both areas have healed well: the skin on the back of the hand and chest area is now fully healed, with a healthy, normal appearance.

2. Breast Cancer (9 case reports)

Case 9: 

Dr. William Makis shared on X (Twitter) in March 2025:

IVERMECTIN and MEBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 75 year old patient with Breast cancer 10 years ago, has 5 new breast masses. They almost completely disappear after 4 months on protocol! Some of the results I get are absolutely jaw dropping. This one is a "must see". STORY: 75 year old patient had breast cancer 10 years ago recently developed multiple breast masses and neck lymph nodes up to 3.6cm. "I do not wish to be treated by the traditional medical system, after a past breast cancer episode and also learning from the COVID pandemic" Fair enough. We started a protocol in October 2024: Ivermectin 1mg/kg/day Mebendazole 1000mg/day RESULTS after 4 months on the Makis Ivermectin Cancer Clinic Protocol: Patient: "The comparison is almost unbelievable!" 1.6cm right breast lesion - gone 1.2cm right breast lesion - now 0.9cm 3.6x2.9cm left breast lesion, possible intramammary lymph node - gone 1.7cm left breast lesion - gone 2.9x2.3cm left breast lesion - gone Patient: “in addition to these breast improvements, five big lumps in my neck have disappeared!” No biopsy. No surgery. No chemo. No radiation. No other explanation. These breast masses weren’t that small either! When I post these testimonials and the patient also took chemo, many people like to claim the chemo did all the work (and Ivermectin doesn't work). There was no chemo in this case. No radiation. No other treatment of any kind.

Case 8: 35 year old woman with Stage 4 Breast Cancer (triple positive) to lungs and bones

Dr. William Makis shared on X (Twitter) in February 2025:

IVERMECTIN and MEBENDAZOLE Testimonial with TURBO CANCER FROM THE BRINK: 35 year old Stage 4 Breast Turbo Cancer patient with "little time left to live" to "NO ACTIVE DISEASE" - the miracle PET/CT scan at 6 months!

This was one of my first Ivermectin Clinic patients: 35 years old US woman with Stage 4 Breast Cancer to lungs and bones Initially diagnosed in Nov 2023 with triple positive breast cancer. "We suspect that she may have a COVID-19 vaccine induced turbo cancer as she received both doses of the vaccine and a booster. Her husband, 36 years old, who received the same vaccines as her at the same time, was diagnosed with testicular cancer" 2024: “We were recently informed that her cancer is resistant to treatment and very aggressive". It is confirmed to have metastasized to her lungs, sternum and spine” “Her Oncologists have informed her that she has little time left and they are not open to trying any of the drugs you have mentioned like Ivermectin”. When I started my cancer clinic, I was very aggressive in my treatment approach. I still am. We started in mid August 2024.

• Ivermectin 1mg/kg/day escalating dose to 2mg/kg/day
• Mebendazole 1500mg/day

Why am I aggressive in my dosing? Have a look at the follow-up PET/CT scan done 6 months into Ivermectin/Mebendazole.

Impression:
"Excellent treatment response with interval left mastectomy as well as complete resolution of FDG avid bone metastasis and bilateral hilar FDG avid lymph nodes that were present on prior exam. No findings to suggest active malignant disease at this time".

 

Case 7: IVERMECTIN and MEBENDAZOLE* Testimonial - 69 year old USA Stage 4 Breast Cancer patient with metastases to liver and bones on Enhertu (December 2024)

Dr William Makis shared on X/Twitter:

IVERMECTIN and MEBENDAZOLE* Testimonial - 69 year old USA Stage 4 Breast Cancer patient with metastases to liver and bones on Enhertu 69 year old woman with Stage 4 Breast Cancer to liver and bones Had 2 treatments of Enhertu with Ivermectin 36mg and Mebendazole 500mg a day for 3 weeks CEA dropped from 148.4 to 83.9 (that’s a 43% drop!!) What is Enhertu? 

"Enhertu, generically known as fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki, is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) designed for targeted cancer therapy, particularly for cancers expressing the HER2 protein on their cell surface" Grok will tell you that it wasn't Enhertu that did this: "In summary, while there is some indication from patient experiences that Enhertu might lead to reduced CEA levels in some individuals, this is not a guaranteed or direct effect of the drug." That 43% drop in tumor marker CEA was due to the Ivermectin and Mebendazole addition to the treatment regimen.

  

I share these to show what optimizing Cancer Treatment looks like (especially in Stage 4 Cancer patients). This is cutting edge work not being done at any Cancer Centre in the United States or Canada.

*Note: Although technically mebendazole is not the same as fenbendazole, both mebendazole and fenbendazole are part of a larger group of drugs known as benzimidazole*, which are anthelmintic drugs (i.e., drugs that kill parasitic worms). 

*The class of drugs known as benzimidazoles includes fenbendazole, mebendazole, albendazole and flubendazole. 

Fenbendazole and mebendazole are similar in that they both eliminate parasitic worms, but there is a difference. Mebendazole is approved for human consumption by the FDA, while fenbendazole is only approved for veterinary use and has not been approved for human use.

Mebendazole is the form that is approved for human use while fenbendazole is approved for veterinary use. The main difference is the cost. Mebendazole is expensive ~$450 per pill (two pills of mebendazole cost just $4 in the UK.), while fenbendazole is inexpensive ~48 cents per 222 mg free powder dose (Williams, 2019). Albendazole is the form used to treat intestinal parasites in India and these cost 2 cents per pill. 

While most of the pre-clinical research uses mebendazole, probably because it is the FDA-approved-for-humans form of fenbendazole, virtually most of the self-treating clinical reports involve the use of fenbendazole.

Case 6: Dichloroacetate, Omeprazole (plus tamoxifen), and Ivermectin for Invasive Breast Cancer

A 69-year-old female was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in October 2015. She underwent left breast partial mastectomy, but bone metastases and pleural dissemination appeared (Figure 1). She responded to chemo-endocrine therapy, but it soon became less effective, and intolerable side effects appeared. We gave up conventional therapy and started treatment with dichloroacetate, omeprazole, and tamoxifen from October 2021: weekly use of three tablets of 333 mg dichloroacetate per day (on Day 1), three tablets of 40 mg omeprazole per day (on Day 1), along with a tablet of 20 mg tamoxifen every day. This relieved her symptoms (bone pain, shortness of breath, and general fatigue) instantly but not completely. Hence, we added a tablet of 12 mg ivermectin per day (on Day 1), which stabilized pleural effusion and induced tumor marker reduction (CEA or carcinoembryonic antigen), which went down from 12.9 to 7.3, and cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), which went down from 302.3 to 229.4 in three months).

Case 5: Ivermectin and Mebendazole for stage 2 invasive breast cancer

Dr William Makis shared his case testimonial on X/Twitter (November 2024):

IVERMECTIN and MEBENDAZOLE Testimonial - my 36 year old European patient clears aggressive 3.5cm breast lesion in 3 months! This 36 year old patient from Europe came to me with an aggressive 3.5cm breast cancer, Grade 3 with lymphovascular invasion. We did a 3 month Protocol: 

• High dose Ivermectin (2mg/kg/day) 
• High dose Mebendazole (1500mg/day) 
• combined with standard chemo & immunotherapy

3 months latter...no evidence of cancer!

Case 4: Ivermectin and stage 4 breast cancer

Lucinda Lea shared her testimonial on X/Twitter (November 2024):

Ivermectin shrunk my breast tumour to nothing, it is a miracle drug. I’m now on this alternative protocol and feeling much better. - Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer.

Case 3: Ivermectin and Fenbendazole

I found a breast cancer lump in my left breast in 2016. I stupidly allowed my doctor to biopsy the lesion, which broke the capsule around it. This may have permitted the cancer to spread to the nodes, making me Stage 2 with three positive lymph nodes. The doctors had said the lump was too big to do a lumpectomy. I should have done cryotherapy to treat the nodule but chose instead to have a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction in one procedure to avoid repeated MRIs and constant worry. After surgery, they recommended tamoxifen, chemo, and radiation. I refused it all and was treated with diet, DIM supplements, vitamin D, stress reduction, psychological counseling, and spiritual work.

In early 2022, I began to have a cough and shortness of breath. My chest x-ray showed a large right pleural effusion (fluid around my lung), and when it was sampled using a needle, it contained malignant breast cancer cells. My scans showed mediastinal lymph nodes (in the chest’s center), a nodule in the right upper lung lobe, and a lymph node in each armpit.

To breathe, I was forced for a time to have the fluid around my lungs extracted with a needle every two weeks. This was despite using hyperbaric oxygen therapy, a detox supplement regimen, and other treatments, including green tea, vitamin C infusions, ozone therapy, high-dose melatonin, green tea capsules, ketogenic diet, infrared sauna, and quantum biofeedback. Quantum biofeedback is an advanced system. It is different from other biofeedback that works on arousal states. Instead, it works on frequencies using a complex computer algorithm program that can be used diagnostically and therapeutically. I also began daily ivermectin (IVM) and beta-carotene supplements.

Within four months of starting IVM, the fluid stopped forming around my lungs. My PET scan six months after beginning ivermectin showed no active cancer in any fluid, no nodule in the lung, and just a couple of lymph nodes that were below the active cancer metabolic threshold.

I then (stupidly) tapered the ivermectin dose to 30 mg twice a week. I was taking so many supplements and foods that I could not tell what was working. The pleural effusion recurred about three to four months after reducing the ivermectin. It was in my left lung this time, and the mediastinal lymph nodes reappeared. I had missed the importance of ivermectin in my overall treatment plan.

In August 2023, I visited the Hope 4 cancer clinic in Cancun, but it was an expensive disaster that did nothing to help me. I again started requiring weekly pleural taps and eventually needed a Pleurex catheter to drain the fluid daily. My left lung was my only normal lung after damage to my right lung in 2022 from the constant fluid and subsequent lung collapse.

From September 2023 until July 2024, I took 120mg of IVM daily plus fenbendazole 444mg daily. Six months later, fluid stopped forming around my left lung. However, I started developing teeth staining, and after about five months, my blood enzymes showed liver dysfunction. After a 10-day break from both medications and restarting them at lower doses, I felt better. My PET/CT scans in March 2024 and July 2024 showed no cancer metabolic activity and no evidence of cancer or lymph nodes anywhere, and my follow-up scans are planned for October 2024. I now take 45mg of ivermectin five days a week, none on the weekend, and fenbendazole 440 mg twice a week.

Case 2: Breast Cancer and High Dose Ivermectin

Dr William Makis shared a testimonial of breast cancer on high dose ivermectin:

IVERMECTIN Testimonial in Breast Cancer - after 4 months of high dose Ivermectin, patient is cancer free. Now what? 

So you've taken high dose Ivermectin for Breast Cancer (2mg/kg/day) and after 4 months you're "cancer free". Now what? It's a good problem to have, isn't it? And it's a question I get all the time. What do you do now? Do you stop the high dose? What does a "maintenance protocol" look like?

Ivermectin and Balstilimab for the Treatment of Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer

This phase 2 trial studies the side effects and best dose of ivermectin in combination with balstilimab and to see how well they they work in shrinking tumors in patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as balstilimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Ivermectin may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Giving ivermectin with balstilimab may increase the effect of balstilimab in shrinking tumors in patients with triple negative breast cancer. Source: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05318469

3. Bone Cancer (Osteosarcoma)

Case 1: Dichloroacetate, omeprazole, tamoxifen and ivermectin for osteosarcoma

A 54-year-old male was diagnosed with right femur osteosarcoma in February 2021. He underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy with adriamycin and ifosfamide followed by tumor resection but local recurrence occurred. Although he received chemotherapy with ifosfamide, doxorubicin, and cisplatin, lung lymph node metastases and pleural dissemination appeared (Figure 2). He could not walk out of his house himself because of shortness of breath and severe pain. Since the combination of dichloroacetate, omeprazole, and tamoxifen had not been effective in sarcoma patients in our study, we decided to add ivermectin to them: weekly use of three tables of 333 mg dichloroacetate per day (on Days 1 and 4), three tablets of 40 mg omeprazole tablets per day (on Days 1 and 4), a tablet of 20 mg tamoxifen per day (on Days 1 and 4), along with a tablet of 12 mg ivermectin per day (on Days 1 and 4). After only one cycle, all the symptoms were relieved dramatically, and he could come to our clinic on foot by himself.

4. Cervical Cancer

Case 1: October 2024

Case study from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN & FENBENDAZOLE TESTIMONIAL - Stage 4 Cervical Cancer patient sees first dramatic drop in blood cancer markers after a few weeks of adjusting Ivermectin & Fenbendazole doses!

We started a High Dose Ivermectin/Fenbendazole Protocol beginning of September and after 4 weeks the CA125 value hadn’t changed, it had gone from 91U/mL to 99.2U/mL which I considered stable but a little bit stubborn. 

We were a bit slow getting the Ivermectin up, so I increased it by 30% increments to +100%.

We also switched up and mixed the Fenbendazole Brands! And the next CA125 dropped by 30% for the first time! 

In just 3 weeks! You have to be able to adapt and fine-tune. Ivermectin really does work at higher doses. But sometimes it’s not easy to get there. And for Fenbendazole, you CANNOT be married to a brand. Mix things up. If you feel a brand is not working, add a completely different brand! DON’T BE AFRAID TO CHANGE BRANDS! That’s the lesson here. Be flexible.

Case 7: December 2024 - 84 yr old Colon Cancer patient

Dr William Makis shared on X/Twitter:

"IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 84 year old Colon Cancer patient from Argentina "essentially on his deathbed" sees significant improvement with low doses!" "I am from Argentina...My father is very ill; he is bedridden and weak at 84 years old, and he may have colon cancer. He has received the COVID Vaccine five times" (Turbo Cancer?) "Refuses to go to the hospital because he is so weak and is essentially on his deathbed." "I gave him 500mg of Fenbendazole once, along with a very low dose of 12mg of Ivermectin, and he showed significant improvement" "Please continue your important work; you are making a difference" "I am sharing this because it is a reminder that even in the most dire situations, you can have a significant impact on someone’s quality of life! Don’t underestimate the impact that Ivermectin and Fenbendazole can have, even in the short term."

Case 6: October 2024 - Stage 4 Colorectal Cancer with liver metastases

Another success case study from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN & FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial in Stage 4 Colorectal Cancer with liver metastases - Patient in his 60s - dropping CEA and chemo side effects disappear completely! 

Sometimes a patient is taking chemotherapy when I get consulted for assistance. So when I suggest a high dose Ivermectin and Fenbendazole Protocol, it comes with two confident predictions: 

1. You’ll have a better outcome than chemo alone 

2. You’ll have less chemo side effects 

Sometimes cancer patients give me a look. It's that "are you sure?" Look. And I just smile. Because I get to see testimonials like this. And I absolutely love seeing it! And yes, within a month we had the CEA levels dropping like a rock too...

Case 5: August 2024

William David Krawsczyn shared on a Facebook Group:

I was diagnosed 9 years ago with stage 4 colon cancer! Colon, liver, lymph nodes! 44 chemotherapy treatments, 6 surgeries, 3 recurrences of cancer! I have taken fenbendazole and ivermectin off and on during last 9 years! Now have a recurrence of cancer and need to know dosage (ml.’s orally) of each and frequency! I have oral goat dewormer (fenbendazole) and injectable cattle dewormer (ivermectin)! Need to know how much of each to take orally and frequency??

Case 2: Colorectal Cancer and Ivermectin

Dr Justus Hope reported on a case of Stage IV Colon Cancer that appeared hopeless. The gentleman, Rick, had widespread metastatic disease affecting the liver and lymph nodes and was told his cancer was “unsurvivable.” At most, he had six months left, according to his oncologist.

Following adding Ivermectin, his tumor markers dropped from 1489 to 4.7, and his metastases calcified and shrunk. This was believed due to the anti-metastatic effect of Ivermectin as it suppresses the WnT Pathway, which cancer stem cells rely upon.

6. Esophageal Cancer and Ivermectin

Dr. Kathleen Ruddy reported on a case of unresectable esophageal cancer:

A second patient crossed my path, a guy in his seventies who lost 40 pounds over a year-and-a-half, was not vaccinated, was a smoker and drinker, and all he did was fish. He could no longer swallow and he could hardly talk. I got on the phone with him and said, “Eddie, tell me a little bit about your history.” He knew someone with prostate cancer who had taken ivermectin and cured himself from prostate cancer with it.

Eddie began taking ivermectin. I have no idea what the dosing was. He was just taking it. I gave him some advice about diet and how to get the weight back on. In a couple of weeks, he sounded stronger. He could swallow, his voice was better, and he had gained six pounds. I followed him for another month or so.

I said, “Eddie, we need to get a scan.” He doesn’t have insurance. He doesn’t like doctors. He had been diagnosed in that interval with two unresectable esophageal tumors. The surgeons wouldn’t go near it. The doctor said, “We'll give you chemo and radiation.” He said, “No, you’re not.” He just takes his ivermectin.

About six weeks later, I said, “Eddie, you need to get a scan.” I had to argue with Eddie to get a scan. We got the scan. No tumors. Gone. The biggest problem was that he had sold his fishing boat. He was getting better and his tumor was gone. Now, he needed to go out and buy another fishing boat. That was the second patient. Again, I said, “Now, that’s interesting.”

7. Gall Bladder Cancer and Ivermectin

Dr. Allan Landrito reported on a colleague of his with terminal gall bladder cancer who added a high dose of daily Ivermectin for some 14 months. At the conclusion, scans reported a complete resolution of her cancer.

Dr. Landrito discussed how this happened. A doctor called him on the radio and asked what the correct dose for Ivermectin would be if someone had cancer. He provided the dose, and she took it for her fist-sized gallbladder cancer.

“[53:43] We have achieved one cure already. It’s a case of gallbladder cancer, and as it so happens, she is a doctor herself.”

“[54:10] I had a chance to meet her on the radio interview. And I told her, “Lenora, Ivermectin has anti-cancer properties. And she asked me how much should I take.” Because she had cancer, but I didn’t know what kind of cancer she had or how terrible her cancer was.

And I said, “The highest you can take, that’s it. There’s no recommendation. Because being a doctor herself, she treated herself. And later on, we learned about what she did.”

Landrito noted she took an extremely high dose for the first few months of 2 mg/kg per day. Although she experienced visual side effects for a few days, they quickly resolved as she grew accustomed to the medication [55:13].

The doctor carefully monitored her liver and kidney function tests to ensure no toxicity. Monthly ultrasound scans revealed consistent shrinkage of the tumor. After 14 months, the ultrasound showed a completely normal scan with “no trace of cancer [56:14].” Creatinine and SGPT testing remained normal throughout the high-dose Ivermectin course of therapy.

As a result of this case, Dr. Landrito has embarked on a study and treatment approach using Ivermectin with encouraging results.

He explained that Ivermectin induces autophagy and apoptosis, death and destruction of cancer cells. He also noted that research shows that Ivermectin alters intracellular chloride concentrations in leukemia cells while preserving mitochondrial membrane potentials [49:41].

Landrito notes this is crucially important as recent evidence shows that cancer is a metabolic disease mediated through mitochondria, not through genetic mutations, as previously thought [49:45].

Thus, Ivermectin can selectively damage cancer cells by preserving mitochondrial health but damaging cancer cell membrane potentials. Landrito explained that poor nutrition likely triggers cancer’s development as it gradually adopts a fermentation pathway. He notes that overnight fasting – 16 hours – can induce autophagy and cancer cell death. However, with the addition of Ivermectin, one does not need to wait 16 hours as the autophagy will begin sooner [52:00]. He is seeing positive results in many of his indigent cancer patient populations.

He has seen other patients with metastatic cancer transform from pain-ridden invalids to carefree and active family members.

8. Glioblastoma (Brain Cancer), Fenbendazole and Ivermectin

Case sharing by Michelle Wright (X/Twitter):

The reading of the results has been posted!! There is a whole lot that I DON’T understand, but I can understand enough to see that THERE HAS BEEN IMPROVEMENT!!  I appreciate all of the prayers and well wishes!  For anyone that isn’t up to date- my Dad was diagnosed with Glioblastoma in April of this year. He had completed one full round of chemo and radiation, and at the beginning of August he was not well. I won’t go into detail. However, I had been doing a lot of research and one of the AWESOME pages I found here was @JohnDParody  I went with a protocol that I felt was best and got my Dad started on a journey with Ivermectin and Fenbendazole. He HAS continued his chemo treatments, but I 100% believe it has been that being used in combination with the Ivermectin and Fenben that has gotten him where he is today. I’ve been here, and I’ve watched him improve daily. I do not have pictures of the scans themselves, because they’re not posted on the portal. But if anyone would like to compare it to any of his previous readings, I can get those as well. I’m going to go celebrate with my Dad.

9. Head and Neck Cancer, Fenbendazole and Ivermectin

A 54-year-old male was diagnosed with right lung adenocarcinoma in September 2014 (Figure 3) and underwent right lung lobectomy. Although he underwent postoperative chemotherapy, local recurrence with lymph node metastases appeared in one year. Initially, chemotherapy was effective, but gradually, it became less effective and metastases in other sites (bone and brain) appeared. Even after we started the combination therapy with a tablet of 333 mg dichloroacetate every two days, a tablet of 40 mg omeprazole every two days, and a tablet of 12 mg ivermectin per week, his symptoms (cough, shortness of breath, pain, and appetite loss) did not improve. However, soon after we changed our protocol (a tablet of 12 mg ivermectin twice a week), all the symptoms were relieved.

Case 6: IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - Stage 4 Lung Cancer patient in India with metastases to brain, liver and bones, sees dramatic recovery including "complete resolution" of liver & bone mets! (Jan 2025 update)

Case testimonial from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

"IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - Stage 4 Lung Cancer patient in India with metastases to brain, liver and bones, sees dramatic recovery including "complete resolution" of liver & bone mets! An International story you're going to love! Adarsh contacted me in early September 2024 about his dying father in India who had Stage 4 Lung Cancer with metastases everywhere including brain, liver, bones. 

"doctors has given some months to live".

So I suggested an Ivermectin/Fenbendazole Protocol - something simple, yet powerful: Ivermectin 1.5mg/kg/day 

Fenbendazole 444mg/day (I suggested up to 888mg)

RESULTS:

PET Scan of 27 November, 2024: - complete metabolic resolution of liver and bone metastases (!) - decrease in size and number of mediastinal lymph nodes - decrease in size of brain metastases (!) - decrease in lung lesion. There are people who claim Ivermectin and Fenbendazole don't cross the Blood Brain Barrier. Well, they're wrong!"

 

Case 5: IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 40's year old California Man with Stage 4 Lung Cancer (Jan 2025 update)

Case testimonial from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

"IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 40s year old California Man with Stage 4 Lung Cancer (post three Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccines, Turbo Cancer?) sees dramatic improvement in 3 months! Another wonderful story for you:

40s year old California man (who had three Pfizer COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines), was coughing for months, and was diagnosed with an unexpected Stage 4 Lung Cancer (NSCLC) metastatic to numerous lymph nodes and pleura, with a pleural effusion. We started an aggressive protocol: 

• Ivermectin 1mg/kg/day increasing slowly to 2mg/kg/day (high dose!)
• Fenbendazole 888mg/day
• Oncologist also started Tagrisso (Osimertinib)

3 Months Later: Primary lung tumor reduced in size from 3cm to 2cm. Pleural effusion resolved completely (!) Gained 15 pounds of weight from his lowest before he started the protocol. These are very significant improvements!"

Case 4: November 2024 - Ivermectin and Fenbendazole for stage 4 NSCLC Lung Cancer

Case testimonial from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 40s year old woman with Stage 4 NSCLC (Non Small Cell Lung Cancer) - dramatic improvement after 3 months! 

40s year old Stage 4 Lung Cancer Patient in the UK In August 2024, we started Ivermectin 1mg/kg/day and Fenbendazole 444mg/day 6 days on 1 day off 

There were some transient visual effects from Ivermectin to overcome in the first few weeks (see messages) But they went away after a few days! 

And less need for strong pain medications! 3 month Follow-up Report: 

“Cancer is stable and all lesions / tumours have shrunk” 

“biggest shrink of all was the one above adrenal gland which has gone from 6cm to 3.6cm!” 

“spots on the left lung and liver were so small they were too small to measure” 

My Take… It is wonderful to see results like this after only 3 months! Sometimes there are some minor growing pains in the beginning - some transient side effects to overcome (like the visual side effects of ivermectin), but once you overcome them, it’s smooth sailing! In this case they lasted about 10 days and then they were gone. 

And yes, we did push to get to Ivermectin 2mg/kg/day (substantial dose) and Fenbendazole 888mg/day (moderate dose). Can you imagine a Stage 4 Lung 6cm adrenal metastasis shrinking to 3.6cm and all other lesions shrinking, some disappearing or becoming too small to measure? In just 3 months? Not bad for horse medicine!

Case 3: November 2024 - Ivermectin for stage 4 Lung Cancer

Case testimonial from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN Testimonial - 60s year old woman with Stage 4 Lung Cancer (Pfizer Turbo Cancer?) does extremely well after 6 weeks high dose Ivermectin and chemo combination! A patient in her 60s had 3 Pfizer COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines and was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer metastatic to brain and bone (Turbo Cancer?) This patient had also just failed Tagrisso therapy, was progressing on PET/CT and was being placed on yet another chemo regimen, Carboplatin / Pemetrexed (Alimta) / Amivantanib (Rybrevant) She asked me for help . So we went 4 weeks with HIGH DOSE IVERMECTIN 1mg/kg/day and 2 weeks with 2mg/kg/day, for a total of 6 weeks. Let’s look at PET results: Lung Lesion 2.2x1.9cm to 1.7x1.6cm, SUV 5.7 to 1.6 for 72% drop! T2 vertebral body: SUV 3.7 to 1.3 (65% drop) T8 vertebral body SUV 4.8 to 1.4 (71% drop)

This is an excellent treatment response after only 6 weeks! This patient was progressing on previous PET and had failed a crucial chemotherapy. Look at those metabolic activity decreases in the bone metastases! 65-71% drop! With PET/CT, you can see a dramatic drop in metabolism of a tumor after just 6 weeks of Ivermectin!

We hadn’t started Fenbendazole yet!

Case 1: October 2024 - Ivermectin and Fenbendazole for stage 4 Lung Cancer

Case testimonial from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

One of my cancer patients is a woman in her 70s with Stage 4 Lung Cancer with multiple liver metastases. “Less than 7 weeks after initiating the protocol” 

Primary Lung lesion LLL 2.9cm to 2.1cm (28% decrease) 

Liver at porta hepatis 5.3cm to 1.6cm (70% decrease) 

Right hepatic lobe inferiorly, 2.4cm to 1.0cm (58% decrease) 

Right hepatic lobe, 2.1cm to 0.8cm (62% decrease) 

“Overall, hepatic metastases appear markedly decreased in size when compared to the previous CT”
"I wholly believe, as does my wife, that the protocol is doing the heavy lifting".

Case 2

February 2025 case study from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN Testimonial - 94 year old man with Large T-Cell Lymphoma and a mass on his foot refused radiation (before and after photos included!) "My father is 94 years old and was diagnosed with large T cell lymphoma. He had a golf ball sized tumor on the top of his foot at the bend of his foot. All the doctors he saw said it wouldn't go away without radiation." "At his age he chose not to do that. I talked him into trying Ivermectin. I started him on the 1mg/per kilogram as you suggested but my siblings fought me and said that was too much for him to take." "He has been taking 12mg for the last five months and his tumor is now smaller than a pea and it hasn't been breaking open and bleeding like it had been." "We are thrilled with the progress even the low dose of ivermectin has achieved." "Thanks for everything you are doing to help people all around the world"

I love my patients!!! 

No chemo. No immunotherapy. No radiation. 

Just. Ivermectin. 12mg.

Case 1

November 2024 case study from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN and MEBENDAZOLE Testimonial - Young European woman with Large B-Cell Lymphoma cleared of cancer in 2 months! A young woman with Large B-Cell Lymphoma started a regimen of Ivermectin and Mebendazole in late May 2024.

• Ivermectin 1mg/kg/day
• Mebendazole 200mg/day
• followed by R-CHOP x 2 cycles

Comparison between PET scans done in September and again in late November 2024 RESULT: Complete resolution of Large B-Cell Lymphoma on PET scans 2 months apart! European Oncologist’s advice was to NOT take Ivermectin or Mebendazole during chemo (they're no better than the mRNA poisoned, cognitively impaired Oncologists here). My advice was: “Please continue Ivermectin and Mebendazole during chemo”.

12. Neck Cancer and Ivermectin

Case Report: Oscar Nacu, a man with a grotesque neck tumor involving canon-ball lung metastases [01:32:00]. 

After three months of high dose Ivermectin exceeding 2.4 mg/kg per day, the lung metastases shrank, and he no longer required pain medication [01:37:13]. In addition, he walked up to one mile daily and spontaneously sang and danced.

Dr. Shankara Chetty explained, “[01:37:13] Ever since we’ve given him the Lactoferrin and Ivermectin, he no longer takes painkillers. If you will notice, he actually looks younger now than when we started. We still don’t have a cure, but we have a fellow that has been taking Ivermectin since August 29, and he is now at 2.45 mg/kg per day and is still not showing signs of overdosing. And the last I heard was that yesterday he was singing, and he was dancing [01:37:45].”

Dr. Landrito has treated hundreds of thousands of patients with Ivermectin and now growing numbers of cancer patients, all without any substantial adverse effects. Physicians only need to ask why they would not offer this safe repurposed drug to a patient with metastatic disease who has no other options. Why not offer it to patients at high risk of metastatic disease before the cancer spreads?

13. Melanoma and Ivermectin

Case 1: Ivermectin for stage 4 melanoma

Case shared by Dr William Makis shared on X/Twitter (Dec 2024):

IVERMECTIN Testimonial - Stage 4 Melanoma patient (young female) has improvement in lung and liver lesions after conventional immunotherapy reached its limit! This was a young woman with Stage 4 Melanoma who underwent conventional treatment (Immunotherapy) for lung and liver metastases. She was told that the residual masses would remain. Until she took Ivermectin. What the immunotherapy couldn't do, Ivermectin did - the lung and liver masses shrunk significantly! "my wife just had the best checkup she's ever had"

14. Ovarian Cancer and Ivermectin

Case 2

Dr. Tess Lawrie reported on a case of ovarian metastatic cancer with subsequent involvement of the peritoneum – a common spread area. Despite an initial tumor marker (Ca125) level of 288, following Ivermectin and three (9 weeks) chemotherapy sessions, her Ca125 level dropped to 22. There was a substantial regression with no trace of tumor on the peritoneum.

The surgeon was stupefied. His comment, “It’s remarkable. I didn’t expect that.” Ca125 dropped to 22. Operation decision within 15 days.

Following removing the uterus and ovaries, the surgeon added, “This is extraordinary. No tumor. Some dead cells on the peritoneum that I removed. The biopsy confirmed that everything has gone – Ca125 at 3.”

Case 1: Ovarian Cancer (Krukenberg tumor) and Ivermectin

Dr. Kathleen Ruddy reported on a case of Krukenberg tumor in her pelvis:

The third patient was a woman who was referred to me. Her husband called me. He said, “Could you talk to my wife? I think she’s got a problem.” She could feel a lump in her lower pelvis. She had had that for a while. I asked her, “Do you have any vaginal bleeding?” She replied, “Yes, a little bit, but not much.”

I said that the best thing to do would be to go to the doctor and get a CAT scan. She doesn’t like doctors. She doesn’t have insurance. She’s not getting a CAT scan. I was able to convince her to at least get an ultrasound. She gets an ultrasound. She has a 6-centimeter tumor in her pelvis. It’s close to the colon, it’s close to the ovary, it might be near the uterus, who knows? It’s just wedged down there.

I said, “It would be very helpful if you would at least be willing to do a needle biopsy because if it’s cancer, it’s going to make a difference in terms of what your choices are.” Nope, she’s not going to do that. I called her periodically over the next couple of months. She says, “I’m fine, no problem.” I said, “Call me if you need me.”

This was in April or May. I got a call on December 23rd from her husband at 9.30 at night. Her belly is distended. She can’t eat, she’s not passing gas, she’s not passing stool, and her abdomen hurts. I said, “Press down on her belly, does that hurt?” When he presses down it hurts. I said, “Now, press and lift up really quickly and ask if that hurts.” He said, “Yes, that’s worse.”

I said, “Get her to the emergency room.” He said, “We don’t have insurance, we don’t like doctors, we’re in West Virginia, and we hate the hospitals. I said, “Look, she’s going to blow out her bowel and then you’re going to take her to the emergency room and she’s going to die. I suggest you go now.”
Okay, he takes her to the emergency room. They do a CAT scan and it’s an 18 centimeter tumor. Who knows what it’s wrapped around. They gave her intravenous and I said, “Let me talk to the ER doc.”
I said, “Is she stable enough? Can you rehydrate her? Is she stable enough to go to Charlottesville? Because I know people in Charlottesville, and UVA Health has a great hospital there. Let’s see if we can get her to Charlottesville.”

The ER doctor, I can imagine, was very happy to get her on the way to UVA. They admit her on Christmas Eve. They hydrate her and give her nutrition. The head of the surgical oncology team comes in to see her, a brilliant surgeon. He said, “I’m not sure that I can resect this. But let’s tune you up and let’s see what we can do. If I can, I will.”

She gets all tuned up and ready to go. The hospital would not give her unvaccinated blood, so there was a big Shakespearean melodrama the night before surgery. She said, “I’ve got to have the surgery,” but she did not require blood transfusion, thank God.

The surgical oncologist was brilliant. He goes in with a vascular team, a GYN team, and a urologic team, because it’s wrapped around the ureter and who knows what’s going on with the uterus. They all go in and seven-and-a-half hours later, they close.

They got the whole thing to negative margins. She had three mets in her liver. Then postoperatively during her recovery, the metastatic lesions in the liver multiplied, which is not uncommon. She went home maybe five or six days later, after an uneventful postoperative course. Again, the surgical team at UVA gets an A-plus.

She gets in the car and goes back to West Virginia. Of course, the medical oncology people at UVA insist that she have chemo. They are breathing down on her. They’re making appointments for her. They say, “This is not a question. We think you should have this. Here’s your appointment.”
She said, “I’m going back to West Virginia.” She started taking ivermectin, probably taking a little bit higher dose. I don’t think it was sky high. But anyway, ivermectin is safer than a sugar pill. You would have to take a lot to make yourself sick.

Mr. Jekielek: Let’s stop for a moment. It’s safer than a sugar pill?

Dr. Ruddy: Yes. This might be a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much. Ivermectin is so non-toxic that if you did a randomized trial, and these people are getting ivermectin every day and these people are getting sugar pills every day, my prediction—test it and see what happens—would be that the people who are getting the sugar pills would end up having more harm, like spikes in their insulin level, than the people taking ivermectin. That’s why I say, kind of flippantly, that it’s safer than a sugar pill.
Anyway, she starts taking ivermectin. I said, “We need to do a scan.” Everybody gets sick of hearing me say that we need to do a scan. She didn’t want that. How about an ultrasound? Because you can image the liver pretty well with an ultrasound. They had had an ultrasound, so we could compare.
The liver is clean and there is nothing in the liver. She’s fine. She’s driving around with her husband. She’s going down to the southern border and pushing back against the illegal aliens. She’s doing very, very well. That was the third patient.

15. Pancreatic Cancer and Ivermectin

Case 5: January 2025

Case shared by Mama's Mead & Menageries (X/Twitter):

"Where can I add my ivermectin testimonial? It helped me beat pancreatic cancer!" (source)

"I had pancreatic cancer. When I was having a recurrence, I was denied treatment. My doctor went as far as withholding one of my scans to delay me going elsewhere. I could've died in the 3 months it took to get that scan and new care team set up. We'll my mother in law heard Dr. Makis talk about this. She told me to take it. So I did. For 3 months the tumor saw ZERO changes. Then new care team delivered only 6 weeks of chemo/radiation and my scans shortly after showed that the tumor was completely gone!" (source)

"What I'm saying is that with my type of cancer, it doesn't just stop growing. It grows fast and takes you down quickly. That 3 months of no treatment, I should've been dead. Ivermectin stopped the cancer cells from replicating. The chemo finished clearing it out. Compared to how the first tumor growth rate and the second, for this to just suddenly stop is absurd!" (source)

Update by Dr William Makis (January 2025):

"IVERMECTIN Testimonial - Incredible story from a 36 year old mom of 4 with Pancreatic Cancer (possibly Turbo Cancer), whose case was botched by Oncologists, she took Ivermectin and is now Cancer Free! This is an amazing story of courage and resilience that every cancer patient should read! 

Emily Ziegler Faced Pancreatic Cancer at age 36. I will summarize what is a somewhat complicated medical story: 36 year old mother of 4, @FranDHexe was diagnosed with Stage 2 Pancreatic Ductal Carcinoma (PDAC), wrapped around her blood vessels, preventing her from getting surgery. She did 6 months of chemo, which shrunk the tumor away from the blood vessels just enough to allow her to have surgery (Whipple procedure). The tumor that was removed, however, was twice the size of the original tumor, indicating the Pancreatic Cancer had already overcome the effects of the chemo even before the surgery and had been growing again very quickly. Surgeons claimed they got it all but they didn’t (post op pathology report showed positive margins but no one caught it and no one seemed to know) She had ongoing symptoms but wasn’t taken seriously by her Oncologists. Her cancer markers CA-19 spiked and sure enough, 8 months after her surgery she was diagnosed by CT with a Pancreatic cancer recurrence, nearly the same size as the 1st tumor, but her Oncologists refused to treat her and tried to put her on a trial of some kind. At this point it becomes a medical horror story. She went to MD Anderson for a second opinion. Fortunately, this is where she started taking Ivermectin on the advice of her mother in law: “my mother in law knew of Dr.Makis and his research”. She took Ivermectin for three months while arranging a new cancer team to prepare treatment for her Pancreatic Cancer recurrence. During those three months the tumor STOPPED growing, was unchanged on CT and had not metastasized (!!) Her 2nd (more competent) Oncology team then did 6 weeks of chemo and radiation with incredible results. She is now Cancer free!

What actually happened here? How do I explain what happened here? During the 3 months that she was diagnosed with a LOCAL Pancreatic cancer recurrence but her Oncologists refused to treat her, the Ivermectin definitely stopped the tumor growth. Without the Ivermectin she would have progressed to Stage 4 with metastases - this was a very aggressive cancer!

Ivermectin stopped the tumor growth and prevented the tumor from metastasizing! But it doesn’t end there. Furthermore, Ivermectin sensitized her cancer to the chemo and radiation that she then received: “they did just 6 weeks of chemo paired with a small bit of radiation 5x a week”. Let's bring in the science: Ivermectin kills stem cells, making it possible to reach NED post chemo and radiation (2017 Dominguez-Gomez et al: “Ivermectin as an inhibitor of cancer stem-like cells”)

Ivermectin inhibits tumor growth and metastasis (2020 Chen et al: “Ivermectin suppresses tumour growth and metastasis through degradation of PAK1”) Ivermectin inhibits metastasis (2022 Jiang et al: “Ivermectin inhibits tumor metastasis by regulating the WNT/b-catenin/integrin b1/FAK signaling pathway”) Ivermectin reverses chemo drug resistance, allowing chemo to kill more cancer cells (2019 Jiang et al: “Ivermectin reverses the drug resistance in cancer cells through EGFR/ERK/Akt/NF-kB pathway”) Ivermectin sensitizes cancer cells to radiation, allowing radiation to kill more cancer cells. (2020 Mudassar et al: “Targeting tumor hypoxia and mitochondrial metabolism with anti-parasitic drugs to improve radiation response”) Ivermectin was indeed responsible for her excellent response to chemo and radiation and the outcome of now being CANCER FREE! I'm extremely happy for Emily and thankful that she is sharing her incredible story with the world and trying to help others! God bless you Emily and your family!"

Case 4: November 2024

Case shared by 1Thayergirl (X/Twitter):

My son with pancreatic cancer started on ivermectin along with chemo. His CA 19 went from 720 down to 32. It was over a few months. One tumor on liver is gone. The other has shrunk. Pancreas looks almost clear.

Case 3: November 2024 (Pancreatic Cancer)

Case shared by Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - Pancreatic Cancer - CA19-9 drops 1349 to 450 in less than 2 months - loving daughter outsmarts Oncologist! This is a Pancreatic Cancer patient who didn’t respond to first line chemotherapy, the best chemo that the Oncologists had in their arsenal. Lessons: Oncologist with his best medical training and best medicine = Pancreatic tumor grows 4.1cm to 4.6cm and CA19-9 rises 880 to 1349 Loving daughter with internet and dog medicine = CA19-9 drops 1349 to 450. Low doses can work: 

12mg Ivermectin (I would have done 60mg) 

444mg Fenbendazole 4/7 

(I would have done 6/7 or even 888mg) She still did brilliantly. Work with what you have and don't be afraid. The daughter outsmarted the best Oncologists with their best medicine!

Case 2: November 2024 (Stage 3 Pancreatic Cancer)

Case shared by Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 50s man with Stage 3 Pancreatic Cancer - incredible response to therapy after 8 weeks - 75% drop in CA19-9 

75% reduction in blood tumor marker CA19-9 after only 8 weeks of high dose Ivermectin and Fenbendazole is wild! We’re certainly on the right track. 

75% of cancer cells may be dead, no longer producing tumor markers. Excellent question and lesson point here. Is it problematic that the tumor is not shrinking yet? 

That takes a bit longer and is a more involved process. That’s why a PET/CT scan would be good here. We could see the metabolic activity of the tumor drop dramatically, suggesting most of the cancer cells are dead, even if the tumor mass hasn’t shrunk yet. 

Some Oncologists are good at ordering them, some aren't. 

It takes time for the body to re-absorb or clear dead tumor cells from a solid mass. The tumor mass could be 75% dead cells and still appear unchanged in size. Eventually the body does get to mopping it up, though.

Case 8: December 2024

Case shared by Dr William Makis (X/Twitter): 

IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 79 year old Canadian man with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer to Lymph nodes - everything is shrinking 4 months later! 79 year old British Columbia, Canada man diagnosed with Prostate Cancer, Gleason 8, “pushing against bladder wall, in lymph nodes, diagnosed late 2022 with a PSA peaking at 19.72. Completed 28 treatments of radiation. Was currently on hormone blockers (and Abiraterone) but tumor hasn’t shrunk. Came to me for help and we got to work right away: We started the following protocol:

• Ivermectin 1mg/kg/day 
• Fenbendazole 444mg/day 
• Melatonin 120mg/day 
• IP6 
• Artemisia

RESULTS: “approaching 4 months on Ivermectin plus the other products” “the oncologist report is that there is shrinkage in all areas (prostate, bladder wall and lymph nodes. He is not in remission as yet”. The answer to the question is: continue Protocol until remission.

Case 7: December 2024

Case shared by Dr William Makis (X/Twitter): 

IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - 60s year old Early Stage Prostate Cancer patient, Gleason 7, PSA drop 4.6 to 2.46 in 35 days!

60s year old Prostate Cancer patient, new diagnosis, Gleason 7 (3+4 and 4+3) with bilateral disease. Major US Cancer Center gave this assessment: 

“Overall, I think you will eventually come to need treatment of your prostate and because you appear to have bilateral disease, whole gland treatment is likely the best cancer strategy. Whether undergoing treatment now, or observing for a bit longer is the best route depends on your goals. We can consider radical prostatectomy…I’m less enthusiastic about radiation treatment as you are very young and likely to experience the secondary effects of radiation on your normal tissue as you age.”

Pretty standard stuff from a famous large US Cancer Centre that is stuck in the “Big Pharma guidelines” era with zero creative thought. 

Patient did about a month of Fenbendazole 222mg Joe Tippens Protocol, then I got involved. 

We started a high dose Ivermectin/Fenbendazole Protocol: 1mg/kg/day Ivermectin working up to 2mg/kg/day 888mg/day Fenbendazole.

Results one month later: PSA went: 4.4 to 3.6 to 2.46 (lowest PSA level in 2 years!) 44% drop in PSA in about one month! Transient visual symptoms affect some patients at Ivermectin doses above 60mg. They tend to go away with time. Why the high dose Ivermectin/Fenbendazole regimen? - young patient - “A Gleason Score of 4+3 represents a moderately aggressive form of prostate cancer.” - “bilateral disease at the prostate apex plus an additional region with cancer at the base.” I find that Ivermectin and Fenbendazole are well tolerated and it’s very rare to see any issues on bloodwork.

IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - Stage 4 Prostate Cancer patient - PSA drops 1533 to 968 in 12 days - is fatigue and bone pain normal?

Stage 4 Prostate Cancer patient: Started Ivermectin 1mg/kg and Fenbendazole 1000mg 3 days on 4 days off. In 12 days PSA drops 1533 to 968 (37% drop). Abdominal cancer lymph nodes disappeared.

To be honest, that’s a lot of cancer cell killing over a very short period of time!! That will cause a great deal of FATIGUE. That’s to be expected. Bone pain? Also. As cancer cells in bone get killed, the inflammation can also cause bone pain. That will heal over time This gentleman is on his way to becoming cancer free.

Case 5: November 2024

Case sharing by Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN and FENBENDAZOLE Testimonial - Stage 4 Prostate Cancer patient from Ecuador, Gleason 8, goes on Protocol and PSA drops from 800 to 18 in 3 months!

Patients from around the world (hello Ecuador!) are benefiting from Ivermectin and Fenbendazole repurposed drug combination Protocols. 

This was an Intermediate Dose Protocol, with a starting dose of Ivermectin of 1mg/kg/day and a Fenbendazole dose of 222mg to 444mg a day. 

Additional benefit with a ketogenic diet! Now this is only 3 months in, but I think PSA 800 to 18 is good progress so far.

Case 4: October 2024

According to Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN & FENBENDAZOLE in very aggressive Stage 4 Prostate Cancer 

"We reached our goal of bringing my PSA Score down to 0.02 quite quickly. Doctors were surprised at how quickly this happened."

Case 3: 76 year old Stage 4 Prostate Cancer with a single bone metastasis in sacrum

Case report from Dr William Makis (X/Twitter):

IVERMECTIN Testimonial - 76 year old Stage 4 Prostate Cancer patient took Ivermectin for 4 months for a single bone metastasis in sacrum - now cancer free! A SIMPLE QUICK STORY TO START 2025: 76 year old man with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer and a solitary bone metastasis to sacrum that was active as of September 2024.

Took 4 months of Ivermectin 72mg (1mg/kg/day). Update: As of Dec.30, 2024: “the metastatic lesion that lit up on my sacrum on my September bone scan can no longer be found” “They said I’m in remission”. Simple. Elegant. But not much profit to big pharma (although I think MSKCC made a bit of money) I suggested pulling back on the Ivermectin dose to 0.5mg/kg/day, or even stopping it. “So much gratitude for your generous support and virtuous soul” "You are a living Angel"

Case 2: Stage 4 prostate cancer

Dr. Kathleen Ruddy reported on a case of stage 4 prostate cancer:

He worked for the government, and he was going to lose his job and his pension if he wasn’t vaccinated. Two months after his second Pfizer shot, he was diagnosed all at once with stage 4 prostate cancer. He tells a very compelling, melodramatic story about that 24-hour period of time in his life.

He went through the traditional protocols; radiation, chemotherapy, pharmacologic, castration, all of it, over a period of nine months. His name is Paul Mann. His doctor said, “There’s really nothing else we can do. He said, “Can’t you give me more radiation? Can’t you give me more chemo? Aren’t there any other drugs? Are there any clinical trials? The answer was, “No, there’s nothing. There is only hospice. Send for the priest.”

A friend of his knew me and said, “Would you give Paul a call? He just needs some moral support.” I began calling him and we spoke about once a week for three weeks. The poor guy was suffering and had cancer in 11 bones in his body. His right leg was completely swollen and obstructed with a tumor. He was miserable.

I said, “Paul, I don’t know if this is going to help you, but I know it’s not going to hurt you. I just can’t imagine based on my judgment and understanding of the scientific literature and all of the work that Doctors Kory and Marik have done that ivermectin would hurt you. It might help, but I can’t say.”
He said, “I'll give it a try.” He drove to Tennessee where you could get it without a prescription. He drove from where he lives in New York to Tennessee and paid cash for his ivermectin. He didn’t submit it to an insurance company. He didn’t tell his oncologist back in Missouri.

His ivermectin prescriptions were listed in his medical chart. How did that information get from the pharmacy in Tennessee to his chart in Missouri? They don’t know. But actually, somebody does know, and I'd like to know myself.

Anyway, he starts taking ivermectin. He doesn’t have any problems with it. I talk to him every week, “How are you feeling? How’s your leg? How’s the pain? He says, “No change. But I don’t know. It’s not quite as swollen. There’s pain everywhere. Maybe it’s getting a little bit better. It’s not necessarily getting worse.”

Fast forward to a two-month follow-up appointment at the clinic. They didn’t expect to see him. He’s feeling a little bit better. They do a PSA [Prostrate-Specific Antigen Test], which in the beginning was off the charts, maybe 700 or 800. At the time, they recommended him to hospice.
Mr. Jekielek: What exactly do those numbers mean, for the layperson?

Dr. Ruddy: Over four would be abnormal. What are we talking about here? Prostate cells normally secrete a protein, a prostate-specific antigen. It’s one of the things that they do. Cancer cells that originate in the prostate that are dividing rapidly and growing fast are spitting out PSA. It’s not that they’re contributing to the body economy in any way. It’s just they just want to multiply and divide. That’s the end of the story.

Your PSA levels start to rise, which is a screening marker. They will say, “Your PSA was four, and now it’s eight. Let’s do a prostate ultrasound.” The PSA can be a screen for the emergence of a tumor, but it can also be used, particularly at high levels, as evidence for cancer, response to cancer, or recurrence of cancer. His was supposed to be four, but it’s in the hundreds.

He goes back for a two-month appointment and it’s 1.3. They said, “You’re in biochemical remission.” He was not in complete remission, because he still had the bone metastasis, but this was good news. Slowly, he begins to improve. There is less pain and the swelling is down. He has a lot of other vaccine injuries, but he’s getting better.

17. Rectal Cancer and Low Dose Ivermectin

Case 1 

Dr William Makis shared a testimonial of stage 3 rectal cancer on lower dose of ivermectin: 

IVERMECTIN Testimonial - Stage 3 Rectal Cancer responds incredibly to lower dose of Ivermectin! 

90% drop in CEA after Oncologist said "don't take Ivermectin" and patient did the opposite God bless all of you who share your success stories with me! 

Sometimes, a low dose of Ivermectin works! 24mg/day in this case is a relatively low dose but it worked. It worked without chemo, and then it worked with chemo! A 90% CEA drop!

19. Thyroid Cancer and Ivermectin (2 cases)

Case 2

Reported by Dr William Makis on X/Twitter (Dec 2024):

IVERMECTIN Testimonial with Follicular Thyroid Cancer - sometimes less is more - when a slow growing tumor disappears with a low dose of Ivermectin alone! Sometimes the shortest stories can be the most impactful. Follicular thyroid cancer patient with a stable biopsy confirmed tumor. Took 12mg of Ivermectin, 5 days a week, for about 5 months and the tumor disappeared. Nothing more. No Fenbendazole. No Mebendazole. Simple, yet effective This is anecdotal evidence in support of a cancer prophylaxis dose of 12mg for Ivermectin (it seems even at that low dose, Ivermectin exerts a substantial anti-cancer effect). There is the additional possibility that benign tumors or very slowly growing low grade malignant tumors can also be sufficiently and successfully treated with a low dose of Ivermectin.

Case 1

Dr William Makis updated the case (Dec 2024):

Alberto reached out to me about 6 months ago asking about Thyroid Cancer and Ivermectin. There isn't any research on Ivermectin use in thyroid cancer but Ivermectin has very broad anti-cancer activity against many cancers so I suggested using it. "thyroid biopsy and pathology reported papillary thyroid cancer" "You recommended me to take Ivermectin in high doses, 3 to 4 times more than the normal antiparasitic dose and take it every day before surgery. I took Ivermectin 0.6% 3 drops per kilo of weight for 22 days, I had a total thyroidectomy and four lymph nodes, everything went to pathology and oh surprise the cancer had disappeared"

  6 months later... 

"thanks to you I overcame thyroid cancer" 

So we now have anecdotal evidence for the use of Ivermectin in Papillary Thyroid Cancer.

Dr William Makis reported an IVERMECTIN and thyroid cancer testimonial (Oct 2024):

Thyroid Cancer disappears after short term high dose Ivermectin Therapy. Another Ivermectin success story.

There is very little preclinical research on Ivermectin and Thyroid Cancer so these types of experiences are going to be crucial in developing an understanding of the role of Ivermectin in Thyroid Cancer.

20. Turbo Cancer, Ivermectin and Fenbendazole

Experts are seeing a puzzling rise in cancer in people under 50 that appears biologically different from late-onset cancers. While some claim cancer rates have been rising for decades and attribute the increase to sugary drinks, lifestyle, and sleep disruptions, others say mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have caused an emergence of “turbo cancers”—and U.S. regulatory agencies have not addressed the ever-growing problem.

IVERMECTIN Solution much more bioavailable than IVERMECTIN pills: Study

In 2023, a research team in Argentina led by Ceballos et al. analyzed systemic availability and disposition kinetics of Ivermectin orally administered as different pharmaceutical formulations (tablet, solution, or capsule) to healthy adults. Volunteers were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 experimental groups and orally treated with IVM as either, a tablet, solution, or capsules at 0.4 mg/kg Blood samples were taken as dried blood spots (DBS) between 2 and 48 h post-treatment and IVM was analyzed by HPLC with fluorescence detection 

Conclusion: 

• Liquid Ivermectin gives 68% higher peak blood level than tablet (120.4 vs 71.8) 
• Liquid Ivermectin gives 56% higher systemic availability than tablet (1653 vs 1056) 
• Women reach 76% higher peak blood level with Liquid Ivermectin than men (153.7 vs 87.1) 
• Women get 27% more systemic availability from Liquid Ivermectin than men

Conclusion

New & Improved Joe Tippens Protocol

The holy grail turbo cancer treatment may just be the synergistic combination therapy of Fenbendazole AND Ivermectin as follows:

• Fenbendazole (300mg, 6 days a week) or in the case of severe turbo cancers up to 1 gram.

• Ivermectin (24mg, 7 days a week) or in the case of severe turbo cancers up to 1mg/kg/day* (Find a Doctor)

• Bio-Available Curcumin (600mg per day, 7 days a week).

• Vitamin D (62.5 mcg [2500 IU] seven days a week).

• Adopting a healthy lifestyle is essential during this protocol. This includes eliminating sugar from the diet (BMJ 2023), consuming a nutritious, whole-food diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables, avoiding ultra-processed foods (BMJ 2024), and minimizing stress.

Please note that this protocol now includes the vital Vitamin D addition, with the one day off for the fenbendazole administration. This protocol represents the most comprehensive and cutting edge repurposed drug and vitamin treatment approach to date.

*You might need vitamin A if you are on ivermectin high dose. Talk to your doctor.
