Targeting Bone Neoplasms and Other Cancers with Novel Combined Anticancer and Anti-Angiogenic Polymer Therapeutics
Anti-cancer NanoTherapyUtilizing unique nano-technology to develop targeted combination nanomedicines that were shown to be synergistic, effective and safe for treating cancer TechnologyWe have developed a new platform technology for the treatment of cancer and bone metastases using combined targeted nano-sized polymers that deliver chemotherapeutics creating a new class of effective and safer molecules. The novel […] Read More >
Novel Class of Turn-ON Near-Infrared Probes for Diagnosis and Imaging of Inflammation and Cancer
Complete tumor removal during surgery has a great impact on patient survival. To that end, the surgeon should detect the tumor, remove it and validate that there are no residual cancer cells left behind. Residual cells at the incision margin of the tissue removed during surgery are associated with tumor recurrence and poor prognosis for […] Read More >
Novel Integrase Based Cancer Treatment Technology
We have developed a new gene therapy technology for specific cancer cells killing and validated both efficacy and safety superiority of the proposed system over the conventional one in lung cancer mice model. The proposed system offers advantages over already known counterparts and may therefore be developed into a safer and efficient human cancer treatment […] Read More >
Harnessing Inhibitory RNA Based- Nanoparticles for Therapeutic Intervention in Blood Cancers
The current treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) included standard chemotherapy and small molecules such as the proteasome inhibitor and the immunomodulatory drugs. Although these drugs have improved the response and survival of MM patients, MM is still an incurable disease. Drug resistance and disease refractoriness are the common terminal pathways leading to patients’ mortality. Therefore, […] Read More >
Inhibition of the Pax8 Transcription Factor as a Novel Therapeutic Approach for Ovarian and Endometrial Cancer
OUTLINEThe PAX8 transcription factor is essential for ovarian cancer proliferation, and its silencing in ovarian and endometrial cancer cells leads to apoptosis 1,2. PAX8 expression in other tissues is restricted to non-essential organs, suggesting that it is a good target for therapy with minimal side effects 3,4. We propose a novel anti-ovarian and -endometrial cancer […] Read More >
An Oncolytic Virus That Exploits Immune Defects of Cancer Cells
An oncolytic virus for tumors of different etiology presenting defects in interferon signaling, designed as a potent, specific and safe therapy. Promising in-vivo murine melanoma model shows potential for development as a mono or an add-on to chemotherapy or check-point inhibitors. UNMET NEEDOn Nov. 2015 the FDA approved the first oncolytic virus based treatment. Oncolytic […] Read More >
A Novel Nanoparticle that Selectively Delivers RNAi Oligonucelotides to Tumors, Preventing Side Effects to Tissues
UNMET NEEDPancreatic cancer numbers among the most aggressive cancers known today. The overwhelming majority of pancreatic cancer patients pass away within just a year of diagnosis. However, a small minority of patients may live several years with the disease. Our findings pinpoint the inverse correlation between a known oncogene (PLK1) and the expression of an […] Read More >
Novel Ionizable Lipids for Delivery of Nucleic Acids (mRNA, DNA, siRNA)
BackgroundChemotherapy treatment is generally accompanied by adverse effects, which can be significantly reduced using site specific, targeted delivery systems, such as antibody-coated LNPs (immuno-LNPs). However due to inter-and intra-tumor heterogeneity targeting with a single targeting moiety is not sufficient in many cases and in others may induce cancer relapse due to the survival of side […] Read More >
3D Bioprinting of Tumor Models for Personalized Drug Screening and Disease Modeling
This technology aims to provide a three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted tumor model based on natural and synthetic polymers containing several types of cells, which resembles cancer tissue. Our 3D-bioprinted tumor model has potential to predict the clinical outcome of a treatment compared to the other existing solutions, which either rely solely on genetic profiling or do […] Read More >
Therapeutic Vaccine for the Treatment of Cancer
An active cancer vaccine strategy targeting tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens expressed on tumor cells using biomimetic glyconanoparticles generated from unique red blood cells. The resulting sustained immune response inhibits tumor growth. THE NEED While envisioned already in 1891, only a few cancer vaccines have been approved by the FDA thus far. The key barriers to their […] Read More >
