Possible Future Cancer treatment for Breast, Prostate and Pancreatic Cancers

An FDA-approved drug normally used to treat diabetes could control the growth of certain cancers, according to a new study.

What Drug is it?

It's ' METFORMIN'. Yes, Metformin..

Metformin targets the liver to lower blood glucose in type 2 diabetes patients. 

But now in an unprecedented finding, scientists at Massachusetts General Hospital have found that same process has an anti-cancer effect. 

Specifically, tests have shown the drug targets cells' mitochondria (the 'battery' of the cell) in a way that restricts the growth of *breast, pancreas and prostate cancer* .

The somewhat accidental discovery about a drug for a different disease could be groundbreaking for cancer control and treatment. 

We hope for the better Future..
