Abstract:
The present invention relates to the discovery that MK2 is highly expressed in cancer tissue and the inhibition of MK2 using an MK2 inhibitor represents a viable approach to the treatment of cancer, including drug resistant cancers, metastatic cancers and recurrent cancers. MK2 inhibitors as described herein may be used alone or in combination with an at least one additional anti-cancer agent for the treatment of cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the discovery that granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) as well as granulocyte colony stimulating factor receptor (G-CSFR) are highly expressed in cancer tissue and the inhibition of G-CSF using a G-CSF inhibitor, which term includes inhibitors of the G-CSF receptor, represents a viable approach to the treatment of cancer, including drug resistant cancers, metastatic cancers and recurrent cancers. G-CSF inhibitors as described herein may be used alone or in combination with an at least one additional anti-cancer agent for the treatment of cancer.
