Published research on Fenbendazole

5 peer-reviewed publications on Fenbendazole in oncology research, clinical work first, then laboratory studies. Each entry reports what the authors stated; follow the link for the full paper.

This page is a reading list of peer-reviewed publications, compiled for information. It is not a statement of indications, a recommendation or medical advice.

  1. Case report

    Drug-Induced Liver Injury in a Patient with Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer after the Self-Administration of Fenbendazole Based on Social Media Information

    Yamaguchi T et al., Case Reports in Oncology, 2021

    An 80-year-old woman with advanced non-small cell lung cancer on pembrolizumab developed severe liver injury after one month of self-administered fenbendazole, which resolved after discontinuation, and no tumour shrinkage was observed.

  2. In vivo

    Fenbendazole acts as a moderate microtubule destabilizing agent and causes cancer cell death by modulating multiple cellular pathways

    Dogra N et al., Scientific Reports, 2018

    Fenbendazole showed moderate affinity for mammalian tubulin, was cytotoxic to human cancer cells at micromolar concentrations, inhibited glucose uptake and glycolytic enzymes, and blocked growth of human xenografts in mice when given orally.

  3. In vivo

    Fenbendazole as a potential anticancer drug

    Duan Q et al., Anticancer Research, 2013

    Fenbendazole was toxic to EMT6 mouse mammary tumour cells in vitro, but maximally intensive regimens did not alter growth of EMT6 tumours in mice or increase the effects of radiation, and the authors reported no evidence that fenbendazole would have value in cancer therapy.

  4. In vivo

    Unexpected antitumorigenic effect of fenbendazole when combined with supplementary vitamins

    Gao P et al., Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science, 2008

    In SCID mice implanted with human lymphoma cells, neither fenbendazole nor supplementary vitamins alone altered tumour growth, whereas the combination of both significantly inhibited tumour growth.

  5. In vitro

    Anti-cancer effects of fenbendazole on 5-fluorouracil-resistant colorectal cancer cells

    Park D et al., Korean Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 2022

    Fenbendazole induced apoptosis and G2/M cell cycle arrest in both wild-type and 5-fluorouracil-resistant SNU-C5 colorectal cancer cells, and its activity in the resistant cells did not require p53.
