摘要:
This invention is related to a pharmaceutical combination that contains a Casein kinase 2 (CK2) peptide inhibitor (termed P15) along with the standard chemotherapeutic drugs used in cancer treatment and which are administered together, separated or sequentially. The chemothearapeutic drugs include cisplatin, taxol, alkaloids from Vinca, 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, mitomicin C, imatinib, iressa and velcade (vortezomib). The synergism between the P15 peptide and the anticancer drugs achieves an efficient concentration of each cytostatic drug in the combination which is from 10- to 100-fold lower than that for each cytostatic drug alone. The pharmaceutical combination described in this invention exhibits lower toxicity compared to that reported by the anticancer therapeutics and therefore, it represents a crucial advantage for its use in cancer therapy. Furthermore, the sequential administration of this pharmaceutical combination through the pretreatment with the P15 peptide leads to the chemo sensibilization of refractory tumors to the anticancer therapeutics.
摘要:
The present invention is related to the development of peptides derived from the sequence HYRIKPTFRRLKWKKYKGKFW, showing aminoacids substitutions, these peptides unable to bind to the lipopolysaccharide and bearing anti-tumoral and immunomodulatory capacities. These peptides alone or in combination are useful to treat cancer, and also in synergy with conventional therapies.
摘要:
The invention relates to the development of peptides originating from sequence HYRIKPTFRRLKWKKYKGKFW, into which amino acid substitutions have been introduced, which guarantee the dissociation of the lipopolysaccharide-binding capacity and potentiate the anti-tumour and immunomodulatory effect. Said peptides and combinations thereof can be used in the treatment of cancer, as well as in synergism with other standard therapies.
