Case Report: Inoperable Metastatic Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, age 66, Male
No Chemotherapy or Radiation; Fenbendazole and Other Substances Only
Fenbendazole Can Cure Cancer presents Case Reports of people who have treated their own cancers along with other articles to help understand how fenbendazole works. Previous articles covering other cancers are in the Archives link.
This Case Report is from a 66 year old man with metastatic esophageal cancer that had spread to the lungs and lymph nodes. It was determined that the cancer was too advanced for surgery or radiation but he was given palliative chemotherapy. Palliative chemotherapy is typically used when the cancer has spread extensively, is inoperable and chemotherapy is not being used in an attempt to eradicate the cancer. The main goal of palliative chemotherapy treatment is to try to improve the quality of remaining life.
Hi Ben, I have an update for you. I received my results from my scan of last week and I’m still cancer free!
I had Stage 4 Esophageal Adenocarcinoma that was large, 18 centimeters long, that had metastasized primarily to one of my lungs and lymph nodes in the region as well. I also had some lumps in my back that were suspected as cancer too. The cancer had also enveloped veins and arteries in the area which is the main reason why surgery wasn’t considered an option for me. My oncologists determined that my cancer was too advanced for radiation or chemotherapy as well, so I was in real trouble.
They did give me some basic chemotherapy consisting of fluoracil and Herzuma to make my final days more comfortable but I was told these would not get rid of the cancer.
I am cancer free today. I give the glory to God, and deepest heartfelt thanks to the folks here and in a facebook group that helped me through this! Because I was given up on I started doing my own research. There are many different types of substances that appear to have anti-cancer properties so I figured I’d use as many as I could in the short time period I had try them. Here is what I did:
• 222 mg packet of fenbendazole (Panacur-C), once per day
• 2 ml Shiaqga Rapid Immune Recovery (mushroom, frankencense, black cumin, lemon), twice per day
• Multigenics Intensive Care multivitamin (no iron), once per day
• 400 mg Calcium, twice per day
• 1000 IU Vitamin D3, twice per day
• 99 mg Potassium, twice per day
• 5000 mg Vitamin B12, once per day
• 600 mg Curcumin (Theracumin HP), twice per day
• 1000 mg Milk Thistle Extract, once per day
• 33 mg CBD (Recepta Relief 33 Fresh Berry CBD), once per dayI followed this protocol for about 14 months, and I started to feel better at around three months or so into it. In April I was determined to be cancer free, no evidence of disease! And just last week, early November, follow up testing and scans were NED, meaning I’m still cancer free. So that is eight months and counting of being cured! THANK YOU JESUS!
Now I take the one 222 mg packet of Panacur-C each day along with the Theracumin, milk thistle, potassium, and a lot of Jesus!
Proverbs 17:22 tells us, “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine; but a broken spirit drieth the bones.” Prayer and laughter (good attitude) were essential in my recovery!
A. R., Lexington KY November 4, 2023
Q: Any side effects from anything you were taking?
A: No.
Q: Some of the substances in your list aren’t typically associated with anti-cancer effects, like potassium?
A: OK, those other things like potassium and calcium I took for heart health, B12 for energy, vitamin D for bones and the milk thistle as a liver detox agent. Fenbendazole is what killed the cancer.
Q: Did you tell your doctor you were using fenbendazole?
A: After I started to rally I went to see them and told them about what I was doing. No response from them.
Q: We’re a little confused regarding the timing here? When did you start fenbendazole and when did you first get updated diagnostics?
A: I started fenben in July/August of 2022 and then in April of this year I was first declared cancer free, and then again a follow-up in early Nov. found no evidence of cancer. I felt better pretty soon after starting fenben, after about three months or so. So I’ve been clear for at least 8 months or so as of now.
Q: Did you get any covid shots or boosters?
A: None.
Q: Anything else you’d like to add?
A: For me, I realized something good was happening when I started to feel better. It was easier to swallow which made life so much more normal. The tumors were shrinking which enabled my body to function more normally.
Summary
This Case Report is of a man who received no treatments that would eradicate his cancer, other than what he did for himself. The average survival time with inoperable esophageal cancer is not long, maybe a couple months in many instances (Besharat et al., 2008) while the 5 year survival rate with chemotherapy, radiation and surgery is 8% to 20% (Pultrum et al., 2006). Tumor size is also a significant factor in survival prognosis, with larger tumors associated with poorer outcome (Zeybek et al., 2013); A.R.’s tumor was extremely large. At 14 months survival so far, A.R. has greatly beaten the odds against him compared to others with inoperable, untreatable esophageal cancer.
How did he do it? He didn’t give up, he did his research then threw the kitchen sink at his cancer. He also had a great attitude and faith, which are emerging as common traits in many of the Case Report success stories described here.

Fenbendazole vs. Mebendazole vs. Albendazole vs. Flubendazole: The benzimidazoles are very similar chemically and they have very similar mechanisms of action with respect to disrupting microtubule function, specifically defined as binding to the colchicine-sensitive site of the beta subunit of helminithic (parasite) tubulin thereby disrupting binding of that beta unit with the alpha unit of tubulin which blocks intracellular transport and glucose absorption (Guerini et al., 2019). If someone asks you how fenbendazole kills the cancer cells, the answer is in italics in the previous sentence.
The class of drugs known as benzimidazoles includes fenbendazole, mebendazole, albendazole and flubendazole. Mebendazole is the form that is approved for human use while fenbendazole is approved for veterinary use. The main difference is the cost. Mebendazole is expensive ~$555 per 100 mg pill, while fenbendazole is inexpensive ~48 cents per 222 mg free powder dose (Williams, 2019). As you may recall, albendazole is the form used to treat intestinal parasites in India and these cost 2 cents per pill. FYI, to illustrate how Americans are screwed by Big Pharma, two pills of mebendazole cost just $4 in the UK, 27 cents per 100 mg pill in India and $555 per 100 mg pill in the US.
While most of the pre-clinical research uses mebendazole, probably because it is the FDA-approved-for-humans form of fenbendazole, virtually all of the self-treating clinical reports involve the use of fenbendazole. Because the preclinical cancer studies use mebendazole (ironically the human form of fenbendazole) and humans self-treat their cancers with fenbendazole (the animal form of mebendazole) it is very reasonable to assume that mebendazole and fenbendazole are functional equivalents with respect to cancer. It would be helpful if future pre-clinical and clinical investigations simply used fenbendazole as a practical matter. For the purposes of this Substack, fenbendazole, mebendazole and albendazole are used interchangably.
Where to get fenbendazole
In our experience and the experiences of those that write in, it appears that the three readily available brands of fenbendazole (Panacur-C, FenBen Labs, Happy Healing Labs) are equally effective. Panacur-C can be obtained locally in pet stores, while they all can be obtained from Amazon.
If you would like to report your experiences with fenbendazole you can do so privately by email fenbendazole77@gmail.com or more publically in the Comments section in any of the articles. Also, if you know of people who’ve tried fenbendazole, and it didn’t work, we’d be especially interested in hearing from you now. Understanding the conditions and factors that enhance or impede the success of fenbendazole in treating cancer are valuable.

Question: How could the person take all those supplements w bad ESOPHAGUS..??
Just wanted to take the time to update my story. I started the second round of Chemo after the first round of Chemo/Radiation ended in Early Nov of 2023. I rested until the first stack tests were done at the end of November, 2023 that still showed the presence of cancer although the size of the tumor was down significantly. I started Chemo Therapy in December which consisted of an infusion of one type of chemo therapy and the same chemo pills I had taken during the first round. The treatment was two infusions (1/week) with an increase of about 10% in the number of chemo pills I was to take daily. The schedule was to be two weeks on and one week of rest, starting in December of 2023 and lasting through May of 2024. The infusion caused extreme sensitivity to cold and neuropathy in my hands and feet. I went through one two-week treatment and started the second round of the series. About 9 days into the second round, I was as sick as I had been after about 5 weeks of Chemo/Radiation, with no appetite, shortness of breath and extreme diarrhea. I had a very heightened sense of smell, but everything smelled bad. I visited with my oncologist and we made the decision to bypass the pills and install a port in my chest to allow both cancer "medicines" to be infused, which would also require the use of a small pump to finish infusing the cancer drugs after I left the infusion room. About 3 days later my legs swelled badly and I called everything off. My oncologist called for a doppler on my legs and an echo on my heart to assess for any heart damage that might have been present. In addition my diarrhea (I lever looked at it, just kept flushing) had been full of blood and subsequent testing showed a loss of about 30% of my hemoglobin. My oncologist said, "We have a laundry list of side effects this treatment can cause, and it appears you have all of them."
That was enough of a message from God to cause me to decide to stop any further chemo therapy.
After considering the nature of this cancer, which is located very close to the anal opening and not within the body cavity, and in my opinion, not being continually bathed in blood and other bodily fluids, I made the decision to start injecting SafeGuard Liquid directly into my anus. I started with a lower rate of 225 Mg, and over time have increased it to around 700 Mg/day. So, I'm taking the SafeGuard paste orally with 1Tbl of Olive Oil and injecting the SafeGuard liquid anally at 700 mg/day as well. I have had no side effects from this regime and believe the rectal administration may be the best way to attack this cancer, since there are no digestive issues and the tumor is being hammered with full strength Fenbendazole. Secondly, after reading about this approach that has already been employed by the medical industry for certain medications, I'm fairly certain the FenBen is being absorbed into my body through the anus. I had another stack test on March 19th which showed a reduction in size to the extent that my cancer surgeon determined the tumor was sufficiently small enough to allow us to watch and wait. He set up an intermittent sigmoidoscopy only, for early May and that was done last week. The results showed another 50% reduction in the remaining scar/tumor (As the MRI doctors have named it) from the two sets of stack tests received. We will have another stack test done in late June of this year. The CT and Pelvic MRI show no evidence of disease by the way. My only disappointment at this point in time is that we have not made it to "no evidence of disease", as the biopsy received still shows a cancer signal.
But the good news is that I feel great, I am symptom free, my energy and strength have returned and at this point in time am convinced I can now manage this monster regardless of whether or not we kill it completely. My feeling is that we will be able to make that happen over time and I am continuing with the safeguard regimen along with 2 multi-vitamins per day and 5000 IU of Vitamin D, 2400 mg of Tumric and 125mg CBD. Will keep you updated on the next stack tests scheduled for about 5 weeks from now.
