Abstract: Compositions and methods for treating diseases, such as cancers. The compositions are effective to silence, down-regulate or suppress the expression of a validated target gene by stimulating the process of RNA interference of gene expression, thus inhibiting tumor growth. The invention also provides methods for treating diseases, such as cancers, by inactivation of a validated target gene product, using neutralizing antibody or small molecule drug, to inhibit tumor growth. More particularly, the compositions and methods are directed toward a cancer or a precancerous growth in a mammal, associated with pathological expression of a certain target genes identified herein. The compositions inhibit expression of the target gene when introduced into a tissue of the mammal. The methods include administering the compositions of the invention to a subject in need thereof in an amount effective to inhibit expression of a target gene in a cancerous tissue or organ.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for treating cancers by manipulating a target gene expression by up-regulation, silencing and/or down-regulation of the gene, such as EGFR-RP, TRA1, MFGE8, TNFSF13 and ZFP236, respectively. The methods are useful in treating cancers and/or inhibiting tumor growth by enhancing expression of a gene that is validated as a target such as ICT1030, for protein, peptide drug and gene therapy modalities; or by RNA interference to silence and/or down-regulate targets such as ICT1024, ICT1025 and ICT1031 and ICB1003 that are validated for antibody, small molecule and other inhibitor drug modalities.
