A survey cited by Dr. Harvey Risch, a Yale epidemiologist, found that 48% of respondents with tumors who used anti-parasitic drugs reported tumor regression or disappearance.
Dr. Risch stated that parasitic organisms and cancer cells share some mechanisms of reproduction, providing a rationale for why anti-parasitic drugs might be effective against tumors. “These parasitic organisms share some of the mechanisms of reproduction with cancer cells…there’s an overlap for why anti-parasitics might work against cancer,” he said in the video. This concept is not new; declassified CIA documents from 1951 revealed Soviet research on similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors, according to the book “CIA’s Cancer Secret: The 60-Year Cover-Up of a Medical Breakthrough.”
