There are more studies/trials with the same outcome of ivermectin/fenbenezole combo w/84.4% patients whose tumors and all signs of their cancer no longer there. Too many of you out there just blindly follow big Pharma without considering that each patient is different and should be treated so. Not just another statistic for the “trials”.

The Scam Doctor's avatar

Please cite the actual study, I'd be interested to read it.

No control group (baseline comparator) → meaningless percentage

No randomization or blinding

Observational + self-selected cohort via a telemedicine (!) --->

selection bias (motivated, alternative-therapy–seeking patients)

survivorship bias

Expectation effects and reporting bias are uncontrolled

Data collection method introduces bias. Voluntary digital surveys = Likely recall bias, reporting bias, and incomplete data. No auditing or verification.

This is merely aggregated (cherry-picked) patient testimonials

OUTCOME MEASUREMENT is EXTREMELY WEAK = fatal flaw. In oncology, objective endpoints are mandatory.

Self-reported cancer outcomes via surveys

No standardized oncologic endpoints (e.g., RECIST tumor measurements)

No independent radiology or pathology or biologic verification

“Regression” and “NED” are not clinically validated here

“Clinical benefit rate” is meaningless here. This metric is often misused in low-quality observational studies.

Severe confounding - A large fraction of patients also received conventional therapies:

Chemotherapy (~28%)

Radiation (~21%)

Surgery (~20%)

Supplements/diet changes (~50%)

This creates UNCONTROLLED CONFOUNDING:

Improvements could be entirely due to standard treatments

Or due to earlier-stage disease, selection effects, etc.

Attrition bias (dropout problem) - Huge red flag -- 197 enrolled → 122 completed follow-up (~62%).

Patients doing poorly are more likely to drop out

Results become inflated (“healthy responder bias”)

The paper does not address this, other than waving it away.

Statistical analysis is superficial - High school level. Uses simple proportions, CIs, chi-square. No multivariate adjustment for confounders.

No time-to-event analysis (e.g., progression-free survival).

Given the dataset complexity, the analysis is underpowered, naive and amateur.

External validity is poor. Heterogeneous cancers (prostate, breast, lung, etc.)

Different stages, treatments, timelines

Pooling them together inflates sample size artificially and obscures disease-specific outcomes.

I could clean this up for you, but I suspect it would not matter.

It’s an early study, a pilot study. Just like the detailed case reports I’ve compiled. They are data points that demand further investigation. But let’s not let the goal of perfection block progress. People are successfully self-treating their solid tumor cancers with fenbendazole and living to tell their stories.

Healthy Wellness's avatar

It's presented as anything but "preliminary." and your heros (and legitimate clinical researchers) have been studying the drug for .. decades.

It's not even a decent proof-of-concept trial. They didn't bother to submit it to a publishing mill.

Pretty pictures, though.

Dear Healthy ,when has big pHARMa ever had a truthful drug trial ?

Supplementer's avatar

Your silly Substack features a couple of "published" (and retracted) case reports first-authored by Billy Makis, supposedly at Cross Cancer Institute in Edmonton - where he hasn't been since when - 2016? And he hasn't held a medical license since 2018 or 2019.

And "International Society for Orthomolecular Medicine, Toronto" and "Association Cancer et Métabolisme, Nîmes" exist only virtually. The latter is a 300 year old farm house.

You have less than his zero legitimacy.

Ben Fen's avatar

Nice handle. Establishes the expertise and legitimacy of your comments🤪

Mary Jarvis's avatar

We can all question alternative options, unless we are left without hope when the options from western medicine have begun to fail and we are offered a # of days ….instead of hope. And you could do your own study/book opposed to torching (offering to clean up)

someone else’s.

sharon's avatar

Dear Healthy , sounds just like big pHARMa 's trials , all bias and made up .

Trump Dick Sucker's avatar

That's an absurd "paper."

Outcome measure = "Self-reported disease progression"

No re-staging, no imaging, no biomarkers, not even physical examination.

Not randomized, not blinded, no placebo (😲) because ...

The Scam Doctor's avatar

Bumping this, unless of course there is no study

Does anybody remember Dr. Hulda Clark? She was curing cancers back in the 80's with what she called her "zapper", a low-voltage instrument designed to disrupt the energy fields of parasites and kill them. She had a sudden "heart attack" at 85 and her lab partner, David Amrein, fled to Britain where he still is today. I bought a zapper early on and have been using it for years annually to flush out parasites. It works well as you can see them when you poop them out. I use it for 1-2 weeks till I see no more parasites and I have never had cancer. I'm now a bit over 70 and very healthy considering today's wholly polluted world and the simple fact that I lived HARD in the 80's and still smoke a pack of smogs a day. She developed a frequency machine that detected the frequencies of all sorts of parasites and kept an extensive library of all, using what she learned to develop the zapper for home use. You can still get one through Mr. Amrain by doing a web search, at least as of 2019 when I had to replace my nearly 40 yo unit because I forgot to remove the batteries when out of use. Personally, I feel it beats dewormer.

Thanks for the information… no one in journalism reports these things anymore

The Scam Doctor's avatar

I've had the unfortunate reality of taking care of now multiple cancer patients on fenbendazole. I'm not a cancer doctor. I take care of the severe complications of their cancer progressing while on fenbendazole that land them in the hospital.

USAMNESIA's avatar

This comment seems confusing. You are a doctor(not oncologist as you stated) who is treating cancer patients...specifically their severe complications.... who are sent to hospital BECAUSE they are using Fenbendazole? What specific complications are directly caused by the Fenbendazole within a progressive cancer condition? Thanks for the additional insight as many in the "patient" world have lost trust with the "white coat" crowd as a result of the unethical,immoral,and at times criminal behavior of the "experts" during the virus that swept humanity with its considerably low IFR.

The Scam Doctor's avatar

Ohh I see how it could be confusing, sorry. I've had multiple patients with cancer use fenbdendazole and their cancer progressed. That's because fenbendazole does not actually treat cancer. When the untreated cancer progressed, it caused severe complications like bowel obstructions or fluid around the lung.

Basically, using fenbendazole leaves a cancer completely untreated so it can grow, spread, and cause complications.

USAMNESIA's avatar

Interesting. From the accounts I have read over the past several years some have opted to pursue the fenben protocol in a variety of ways. Some prefer no radiation or chemo …just fenben and other supplements. Some maintain various degrees of the “ standard of care” chemo and/or radiation IN ADDITION to the fenben. Some prefer higher dosages of the fenben in either of the aforementioned protocols. It seems we are left with a severe case of multi-variable analysis. What I have learned(bias I’m sure to some degree) is that one size does not fit all in medicine. However in the top down autocratic nature of the profession there is far too little acceptance or even admission that like most sciences….the more you “know” the more you realize how little you “know”. At the end of the day we have to be able to choose our own treatments . With that right we must realize as always caveat emptor.

Ben Fen's avatar

Most of my case reports started fenbendazole after exhausting standard of care treatments. The implication that alternative (effective) or standard-of-care is a binary (either/or) choice is false. Many preclinical and preliminary human studies, mostly from the Riggins lab at Hopkins, report a synergistic effect of antiparasitics like fenbendazole and SOC like vincristine/cisplatin and radiotherapy on various cancers. Going forward it might be prudent to ADD a physician-directed or self-directed antiparasitic treatment to most SOC protocols given the low risk/high reward profile. Oncology should not be threatened by these findings on anticancer effects of antiparasitics, rather they should be embraced as a tool to increase the success of the profession.

Ben Fen's avatar

Many people add fenbendazole and ivermectin to standard of care cancer treatments. The adverse side effects are due to SOC treatments.

The Scam Doctor's avatar

I'm not talking about side effects from fenbendazole and ivermectin, I'm talking about adverse sequelae of cancer progression because fenbendazole and ivermectin do not treat cancer.

sharon's avatar

Dear Scam ,do you also take care of cancer patients that have severe complications from big pHARMa cancer drugs ? Serious question.

The Scam Doctor's avatar

Yes I do. Statistically, hospitalizations for cancer happen over 20x more often than hospitalizations for cancer therapy side effects. These people who lie to desperate cancer patients about fenbendazole, ivermectin, melatonin, vitamin C, metformin, etc. add to the numbers of people hospitalized for cancer complications.

Ben Fen's avatar

Incorrect. Saxena A, Rubens M, Ramamoorthy V, Tonse R, Veledar E, McGranaghan P, Sundil S, Chuong MD, Hall MD, Odia Y, Mehta MP, Kotecha R. Hospitalization rates for complications due to systemic therapy in the United States. Sci Rep. 2021 Apr 1;11(1):7385. doi: 10.1038/s41598-021-86911-x. PMID: 33795827; PMCID: PMC8016938.

The Scam Doctor's avatar

The study you cite shows the incidence of cancer therapy related hospitalizations during a roughly 10 year time period: 2.4 million

This study (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-97310-x#Fun) shows cancer-related hospitals during a roughly 10 year time period: 56 million

56 million is roughly 20x more than 2.4 million. I am correct.

Opiate's kill more young Americans than cancer. Yet America has the Replacement medicine to stop the Opiate deaths with cannabis medicine. Open up the Federal Medical Marijuana Program and save the addicts....or not.... How did RFKJR daughter die? Opiate's. One of thousands maybe millions from a drug that poisoned them. Cannabis medicine replaced Rx Oxycontin 23 years ago. Cannabis medicine replaced Rx Heroin in America. Just read Professor Dr Grinspoons book Marihuana The Forbidden Medicine. Teach One Reach One.

Cannabis will not take care of opiate addiction, ibogaine will.

John Prinz's avatar

Where you a pain patient using Rx Oxycontin and 13 other Rx drugs for pain control? Did you replace Rx Oxycontin and 13 other Rx drugs? Do you have real pain? I quit Rx Oxycontin 1125 Mgs of opiate's a day, 23 years ago with strong cannabis medicine. 2400 Mgs of THCA and THC. Science. Am I intractable pain patient, advocate, speaker and grower.... This caused me to fix my own addiction and then I told my Doctor Michael H Moskowitz. Google Doctor Michael H Moskowitz book Medical Cannabis and learn cannabis medicine is real. Why did GW pharma get bought by Jazz Pharma for 6.7 billion if cannabis medicine doesn't have value...Rx Epodoilex is a real medicine for children. CBD is safe for children? Why does other Big Pharma own US patents on this cannabis plant? To keep it from the addicts? I don't think so...Big Pharma is learning from us cannabis advocates. Patient Zero John Prinz. Google John Prinz Medical Marijuana and read my medical story. Rx Oxycontin is never coming back. Rx Oxycontin was a long active medicine. My cannabis formula I call Fuchsatima is a long active cannabis medicine.... I drink in Mgs. Someday Fuchsatima will be in the pharmacy.... because it is the only strong cannabis medicine made with olive oil...1 tbsp equals 300 mgs of THCA and THC. Save medicine that works. I have a great letter from Perdue Pharma Oxycontin drug makers. It says I replaced their Rx Oxycontin with my own cannabis formula.... I'm free to say Yes I did. This letter was dated 2013. How many Opiate addicts could have been SAVED? PATIENT ZERO.

John Prinz's avatar

Cannabis medicine by way of the pharmacy in 1914 was the only substance that replaced Rx Heroin in the brain of the addicts. Opiates don't work on pain like cannabis medicine does. No side effects like death, addiction, opiates harms the body. Teeth lose, drys the users out... from the brain it causes Ghost pains...so the drug calls the users to take more...more..more. until you die. Cannabis medicine doesn't cause Ghost Pains. Cannabis medicine will never kill the user. Cannabis medicine is in the pharmacy now with children using it, CBD medicine made by Jazz Pharma Rx Epodoilex. So you can stay what you think... but President Trump changed the schedule of marijuana to a schedule 3 drug. Big Pharma won. Big Pharma like Jazz Pharma owns US patents on this cannabis plant. Many Big Pharma owns US patents on the cannabis plant. Time to bring this Opiate replacement to the real patients.. I'm the only cannabis advocate that wants cannabis medicine in the pharmacy...Why because millions of Americans in pain don't have my freedom to use a great pain medicine over Rx opiates. Congress by way of US Senator Feinstein learned from me RX OXYCONTIN was harming Americans. She welcomed my views on medical marijuana.... because of my medical records. I have 34 years of medical records showing this Truth. Rx Oxycontin and 13 other Rx drugs replaced by strong cannabis medicine I drink in Mgs of THCA and THC. So big Pharma can make new Opiate base drugs... but this will not stop the fentanyl addicts death. These young adults don't go to the pharmacy for their opiates... Americans can find it in every City... it's on the streets of America.... just watch a Podcast... show us the streets of addicts...these homeless people in America are not using cannabis medicine... They use fentanyl, meth and alcohol....so Americans can wait and keep waiting for the Opiate replacement... cannabis medicine... maybe our Federal government wants these addicts to die. For why else is cannabis medicine not saving Opiate addicts lives? RFKJr knows what losing someone to opiate's....his Daughter didn't die on cannabis medicine.... Opiate kill cannabis heals. What will you take when the pain comes? Opiate's or cannabis medicine? Patient Zero John Prinz

John Prinz's avatar

Google Rick Simpson Oil, can God's medicine Cure cancer? Watch CBD Nation and ask yourself why is cannabis not medicine in America?

Penny North's avatar

I disagree that the medical establishment should investigate this. No.

They will warp it to fit their grossly negligent model. And take it away from the public.

We that know should share the information and build a public domain ownership of this.

TeeJae's avatar

Agreed. I think it would also be beneficial for the functional/integrative medicine industry to do the same.

I read last year a post , a lung doc had posted ,that every lung tumor he removed was full of parasites.

Dr. William Makis has been the founding leader of Ivermectin and Fenbendazole curing cancer. Only fair to mention this important information.

It did not work for my husbands cancer. Maybe because it was a recurring cancer? Worth trying for sure.

Yes, FenBen is a miracle and healing follows. But what led up to the ill health must be addressed but also after the renewed health. However people tend to fall back into their old patterns. Changes must be made but from my personal experience, people don’t or won’t change. I remember one guy said to me, “just tell me what to take. I’d don’t want to know why?” Needless to say, he’s right back to where he started.

Praziquantel, Ivermectin, Menbendazol/Fenbendazol.

Although they're not literally parasites in the biological sense, cancer cells behave a lot like parasites of all sizes, and like pathogenic microbes. They use common methods of evading the host immune system and getting the resources they need. There is in fact a great deal of overlap and "cross pollination" between the fields of oncology and infectious disease. This became obvious to me when researching cancer drugs and HIV drugs; some of the very same drug classes are employed.

Brilliant can’t wait to get my book. So treatment should be easy now and made available not hidden from suffering people and children! Why is this just ongoing so cruel 🌎🙏🏻about time big pharmaceutical buttered their nose out of control!
