Abstract: The present invention generally relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a protease proenzyme and use thereof for treating cancer. The pharmaceutical compositions are directed to compositions comprising a protease proenzyme and an active agent, the composition being capable of providing a multi-functional approach for treating cancer. The pharmaceutical compositions are also directed to compositions comprising a first and a second protease proenzyme capable of activation at or near a surface of a tumour cell to enhance cell-to-cell adhesion of tumour cells, effect proteolysis of tumour cells, or induce tumour cell apoptosis, differentiation or immunorecognition, wherein the first protease proenzyme is chymotrypsinogen and the second protease proenzyme is trypsinogen. The pharmaceutical compositions are also directed to compositions comprising a first and second active agent each capable of inducing intracellular activity in tumour cells.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel bidentate motif that is composed of two adjacent residues of tyrosine and serine which have been found to be involved in the binding of crucial cytoplasmic proteins which are involved in cell signalling pathways. In some cases, the cytoplasmic proteins are ubiquitous proteins involved in cell signalling pathways that may include mitogenesis, transformation and survival. The bidentate motif may have a sequence alignment (SEQ ID NO: 71) N-X-X-Y- (X) 1-13-[R/K/H/Q]-[X/?]?2-3-S/T-X-P; (SEQ ID NO: 72) Y- (X) 1-16-[R/K/H/Q]-[X/?]?2-3-S/T-X-P; or (SEQ ID NO: 73) N-X-X-Y-[X]1-30-[R/K/Q/H]-[X]1-4-[S/T]-X-p wherein X is any residue, Y is tyrosine, S/T is serine or threonine and ? is a hydrophobic residue or an equivalent thereof. Preferably the residues are Tyr577 and Ser585 of the common ?c of the GM-CSF/IL-5/IL-3 receptor.
