Synergistic Anti-tumor Effect of Dichloroacetate and Ivermectin

We formerly reported that the combination of dichloroacetate, omeprazole, and tamoxifen blocked cancer progression by reducing lactic acid production and inducing superoxide production. Recently, ivermectin, a well-known anti-parasite drug, was reported to share the same mechanisms with them and have anti-tumor activity. Here, we present three patients in whom the combination of dichloroacetate, omeprazole (plus tamoxifen), and ivermectin dramatically relieved the symptoms accompanying cancer and sarcoma progression.
