Frog-derived bacterium eradicates mouse cancer tumors with a single dose

A recent study reports that a bacterium sourced from frogs eradicated cancer tumors in mice. The tumor elimination was achieved after administering just one dose of the bacterium. Researchers observed complete disappearance of the tumors in the treated mice. The finding highlights the bacterium’s potent anti‑cancer properties. The study was published in July 2026 and covered by ScienceDaily. The results suggest a possible new avenue for cancer treatment development. Further experiments are required to evaluate safety and effectiveness in other models. The research adds to growing interest in microbiome‑based therapies.
