The patent, published by Johns Hopkins University in 2021 and titled'Mebendazole Polymorph for Treatment and Prevention of Tumors,' outlines how specific formulations of the drug mebendazole may be used to target cancer cells. Mebendazole has been used safely for more than four decades to treat parasitic worm infections in humans, but researchers have increasingly investigated whether the drug could also help fight certain cancers, including aggressive brain tumors.

The document, produced in February 1951 and declassified in 2014, summarizes a Soviet scientific paper that examined striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors. The report describes how researchers believed both organisms thrived under nearly identical metabolic conditions and accumulated large reserves of glycogen, a form of stored energy.

Fujitsu 'not a parasite' over Horizon scandal

BBC News

Fujitsu is not a parasite for continuing to profit from government contracts in the wake of the Post Office Horizon scandal, its boss told MPs. European chief executive Paul Patterson said Fujitsu had been given £500m of contract extensions despite its faulty software being at the centre of the huge miscarriage of justice. We are not a parasite, the government has got an option as to whether they wish to extend those contracts or not, he said, adding it would not bid for new business. Patterson also repeatedly refused to say how much Fujitsu would contribute to the £1.8bn redress scheme for victims of the scandal, currently funded by taxpayers. More than 900 sub-postmasters were prosecuted after the faulty Horizon computer system made it look like money was missing from their branch accounts.
