Camilla Lisanti suggested using antibiotics, ‘like when I have a sore throat’.
Her parents, a husband-wife cancer research team were sceptical at first but tested out her theory in their Manchester University lab. And to their surprise, several cheap and widely-used antibiotics killed the most dangerous cancer cells.
Michael Lisanti and his wife, a team of cancer doctors, tried using antibiotics such as those found in acne treatments to treat common cancers after their daughter Camilla suggested it at the dinner table
The antibiotics fought seven of the most common cancers – including breast, prostate, lung and hard-to-treat brain tumours. One antibiotic, doxycycline, is widely used to treat acne and is thought to be particularly promising.
It costs as little as 6p a day. In contrast, some of the latest cancer drugs cost several hundred pounds a day. Cancer charities said the research shows that the answers to some of the biggest questions are right in front of our eyes.
