  • Publication number: 20230149415
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for treating cancer are disclosed herein. The methods may comprise use of therapeutically effective amounts of one or more therapeutic agents to cause a difference in expression or activity of protein kinase, membrane associated tyrosine/threonine 1 (PKMYT1) in cancer cells that are deficient in protein phosphatase 2 regulatory subunit B alpha (PPP2R2A).

    Inventors: Stephen Harrison, Christine Taylor Brew, Michael David Winther, Sourabh Banerjee, Shawn Yost
  • Publication number: 20230078425
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for treating cancer comprising administering one or more therapeutic agents for manipulation of a target gene (e.g., protein kinase, membrane associated tyrosine/threonine 1 (PKMYT1)), wherein the cancer has a mutation in, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or an altered activity of a biomarker. Provided herein are methods for identifying biomarkers of the disclosure that form a synthetic lethal pair with a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1).

  • Publication number: 20220356494
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides lethal gene pair targets for cancer treatment, along with methods and compositions for regulating their expression and activity. Gene pairs disclosed herein include tyrosine kinase genes (e.g., SRC, RON, and YES). Also provided are methods and compositions for regulating tyrosine kinase activity, including RON specific pyrazole benzamide inhibitors and methods for gene regulation.

  • Publication number: 20190070251
    Abstract: The invention provides peptides that are chemically modified by covalent attachment of a water-soluble oligomer. A conjugate of the invention, when administered by any of a number of administration routes, exhibits characteristics that are different from the characteristics of the peptide not attached to the water-soluble oligomer.

  • Publication number: 20180095085
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods directed to the prediction and early assessment of the efficacy of cancer treatment regimens, in particular in patients undergoing therapy with a DNA-damaging chemotherapeutic agent, by determining expression levels of certain proteins found to be useful as biomarkers in circulating tumor cells obtained from the patient both prior to and post-treatment.
