Course Overview
Repurposed Medications in Oncology: A Study Guide for Doctors (Module 1, Course 4 – Fenbendazole) explores the potential role of Fenbendazole in cancer treatment. While originally developed as a broad-spectrum anthelmintic drug, some emerging studies suggest that it may interfere with tumor growth by disrupting microtubule formation, triggering apoptosis, and modulating immune responses.
This course provides an objective review of current research, discussing both the promising aspects and the limitations of Fenbendazole as a repurposed medication. It is designed to equip healthcare professionals with scientific insights on Fenbendazole’s pharmacokinetics, potential mechanisms of action, and safety concerns when considering its use in oncology.
