LOW SIDE EFFECTS AND

AN ACCEPTABLE QUALITY
OF LIFE
The Care Oncology Clinic provides existing treatments currently approved
to treat other metabolic conditions which, when given together with your
existing cancer treatment, can reduce the growth rate of cancer cells.

The Care Oncology Clinic uses a mixture of established tolerable prescription medicines to treat
patients with cancer. These medicines target cholesterol, glucose and glycolysis processes, which
impact upon the metabolism of the cancer cells and the immune cells surrounding the cancer cells.

In recent years, research has been undertaken to investigate the value of existing prescription
medicines, including metformin (diabetes), statins (cholesterol) and antibiotics (infections) in
treating cancer. Research has demonstrated the positive effects these individual drugs have on
slowing down the rate of growth of cancer cells and tumours. The medicines prescribed have already
been used by large numbers of people for long periods of time. This means that their side effects are
well understood and easily managed.

The Care Oncology Clinic uses a combination of these established, tolerable medicines to treat
patients with cancer, alongside their current standard of care. The Care Oncology Clinic’s treatment is
overseen by leading oncologists who will be with you every step of the way throughout your treatment.
