There were two secrets about Krebiozen: What is in it? And does it work? Yugoslav Emigre Dr. Stevan Durovic, who says he extracted the so-called anti-cancer drug from horse serum and brought it from Argentina to Illinois, has never identified the drug's ingredients, and both private and Government cancer experts for years refused to give the unknown substance wide trials with patients. Last week the first secret was out: the Food and Drug Administration stated flatly that Krebiozen is nothing more than the common amino acid derivative, creatine, found naturally in the muscle tissue...
Bitter controversy has raged for twelve years over a so-called anti-cancer drug named Krebiozen. A refugee physician from Yugoslavia, Dr. Stevan Durovic, said that he extracted it from the blood of specially inoculated horses in Argentina and brought it to the U.S. in 1949.

Durovic was allowed to leave Italy on a Vatican visa in 1942 for Peron's Argentina...
