Abstract
Ivermectin is a macrolide antiparasitic drug, derived from naturally occurring organic compound in soil, with a 16-membered ring that is widely used for the treatment of many parasitic diseases such as River Blindness, Elephantiasis and Scabies.
Satoshi Omura and William C. Campbell won the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of the excellent efficacy of ivermectin against parasitic diseases.
Recently, ivermectin has been reported
to inhibit the proliferation of several tumor cells by regulating multiple signaling pathways. This suggests that ivermectin may be an anticancer drug with great potential.
Here, we reviewed the related mechanisms by which ivermectin inhibited the development of different cancers and promoted programmed cell death and discussed the prospects for the clinical application of ivermectin as an anticancer drug for neoplasm therapy.

This is why [they] HATE Ivermectin so
much. Not only is it going to eradicate
this alleged Worldwide 'pandemic', it will
also expose to the World that a naturally
derived CURE FOR CANCER exists!
