Abstract: The inventors have determined, contrary to the prior art and experience, how to successfully use triciribine to treat ovarian cancer by one or a combination of (i) administering triciribine only to patients which according to a diagnostic test described below, exhibit enhanced sensitivity to the drug; (ii) use of a described dosage level that minimizes the toxicity of the drug but yet still exhibits efficacy; or (iii) use of a described dosage regimen that minimizes the toxicity of the drug.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a species of peptide and non-peptide inhibitors of Akt, an oncogenic protein. Beginning with a residue of Akt target substrate GSK-3, the functional domains of the GSK-3 residue were characterized. Functionally homologous non-peptide groups were substituted for the amino acids of the GSK-3 creating a hybrid peptide-non-peptide and non-peptide compounds capable of binding to Akt. The non-peptide compounds show increased stability and rigidity compared to peptide counterparts and are less susceptible to degradation. The bound non-peptide compounds exhibit an inhibitory effect on Akt, similar to peptide-based Akt inhibitors.

Abstract: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent a novel class of genes that function as negative regulators of gene expression and have recently been implicated in several cancers. However, aberrant miRNA expression and its clinicopathological significance in human ovarian cancer have not been well documented. Numerous miRNAs are shown altered in human ovarian cancer, significantly miR-214, -199a*, -200a, -100, -125b, -30d, -221, -222, -126, and -24. Four miRNAs (miR-221, miR-222, miR-126, and miR-24) were found to be deregulated in all four histological types of ovarian carcinoma (serous, mucinous, endometrioid, and clear cell). Frequent deregulation of miR-214, -199a*, -200a and -100 was demonstrated in ovarian cancers. Significantly, miR-214 induces cell survival and cisplatin resistance through targeting down-regulation of proteins activating the Akt pathway. Inhibition of Akt using Akt inhibitor, API-2/triciribine, or PTEN cDNA lacking 3?UTR largely abrogates miR-214 induced cell survival.
