Can TB-500 cause cancer?

This site's TB-500 studies do not measure cancer. The FDA's 2026 review found no published study giving the piece to a person in any form, and no reports in the FDA's side-effect database (FAERS) through March 26, 2025. The study record usually quoted for it belongs to the full 43-amino-acid parent peptide, thymosin beta-4, which is a different molecule. This FAQ does not invent a cancer rate from a record in people that is empty. Full record at /compounds/tb-500.

Part of healing and recovery peptides. BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu, and the tissue repair family, including what actually has human data.
