Two Top Researchers find Breakthrough Discoveries using Predictive Oncology’s Wholly Owned Subsidiary, TumorGenesis’s Technology
This discovery means that drugs could be targeted against that receptor site of the omentum or lining to effectively ‘block’ the metastasis of re-occurring ovarian cancer. Nearly 64% of women die from ovarian cancer in the US. The current patient population has over 21,400 new cases with nearly 13,700 dying per year, mostly from re-occurring tumors.
The second big breakthrough was done by another topflight researcher in the
By successfully growing the cell lines used for the treatment, the researchers found a defective enzyme that can be easily blocked by a class of compounds called PARGs (poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase). If the enzymes are blocked, the patients treated are expected to then have a positive response to continued PARP-PARG treatment.
“Both targets of the research aided by TumorGenesis’s technology, blocking the omentum penetration and blocking the enzyme that accelerates a response to PARP treatment, once developed and approved, represent several billion dollars in future revenues for biotech or pharma companies. Three currently available PARP inhibitors, each becoming resistant to ovarian cancer over time, generate
