    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a composition or combination comprising (i) a compound inhibiting the synergistic carcinogenic effect of cadmium in the presence of another carcinogen; and (ii) optionally a heavy metal chelating or binding compound; for use in the prevention or treatment of cancer in a patient or the prevention of the recurrence of cancer in a patient. The present invention is also directed to a method for detecting anticarcinogens comprising the steps of: providing living cells in a cell culture; culturing said cells in the presence of cadmium, a carcinogen and a candidate anticarcinogen; and detecting those candidate anticarcinogens as anticarcinogens which prevent or decrease the carcinogenic effect of the combination of cadmium and the carcinogen to said cells during the culturing step.
