MT477
family of therapeutic
compounds
Treatment for
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Updated: August 14,
2007
The following is a brief description of MT477 and is updated
periodically to reflect the status of pre-clinical studies and licensing
activity.
Product Family
The MT477 family
of therapeutic compounds was screened from tens of thousand of designed
candidates with an optimal activity profile against non-small cell lung
cancer, using Medisyn’s Forward Engineering™ in silico techniques.
MT477 predictions for activity and specificity have been validated in
vitro with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) 3-cell and 60-cell line
testing. In addition to identifying active chemical analogs, Medisyn has
designed “property analogs” as backup lead candidates – these are
chemically diverse structures possessing the same therapeutic properties
as MT477. Drug-like MT477 and its analogs show remarkable promise and
potential as candidates for pre-clinical and clinical evaluation.
