摘要:
A molecular assay for determining the sensitivity or resistance of malignancies to chemotherapy prior to initiation of chemotherapy and which also allows for monitoring the therapeutic effects of the chemotherapy during treatment. The molecular assay measures tumor response to therapy with EGFR modulators and utilizes tumor mRNA as a starting material and a quantitative measurement of c-fos expression as an analytical endpoint.

摘要:
A novel series of BPU analogues were synthesized and evaluated for antitumor activity. In particular, BPU sulfur analogues 6n and 7d were shown to possess up to 10-fold increased potency, when compared to compound 1, against cancer cell lines. 6n was more effective than compound 1 in causing apoptosis of MCF-7 cells. When compared to other drugs with a similar mechanism of action, 6n retained significant ability to inhibit tubulin assembly, with an IC50 of 2.1 μM.

摘要:
The present invention comprises a treatment approach based on gene set-expression signatures that systematically connects a sample to a profile from a reference database to extrapolate the most effective therapeutic agent. Further disclosed are methods to optimize combination treatments.
摘要:
This invention provides a series of BPU analogues; their synthesis and evaluated biological activity. BPU sulfur analogues were found to possess up to 20 fold increased potency, when compared to compound 1, in various cancerous cell lines.

摘要:
The invention includes compositions and methods of treatment of cancers susceptible to treatment with nucleotide analog chemotherapeutic agent, including cancers in which nucleotide analog resistant tumors have developed, including identifying a subject having cancer susceptible to treatment with a nucleotide analog chemotherapeutic agent and a mitotic disruptor/polo-like kinase (Plk) pathway inhibitor to a subject; and monitoring the subject for a reduction or stabilization of at least one sign or symptom of cancer.
