  • Patent number: 11331290
    Abstract: A method for inhibiting, reducing and/or reducing the risk of cancer metastasis in a subject, including identifying a subject as in need of inhibiting, reducing and/or reducing the risk of cancer metastasis, by identifying the subject as having a cancer with an elevated or up-regulated level of S100A4 transcription compared to a level in non-oncogenic cells, and administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of niclosamide or a niclosamide derivate, thereby inhibiting or reducing S100A4 transcription, so as to inhibit, reduce and/or reduce the risk of cancer metastasis, wherein 15 to 400 mg niclosamide or niclosamide derivate is administered per kg body weight of the subject (mg/kg), 1 or 2 times daily.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9375435
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a DNA expression construct comprising a dumbbell-shaped circular strand of deoxyribonucleic acids and provides such a construct with a double-stranded stem and single-stranded loops located at both ends of the stem, wherein the stem comprises complementary deoxyribonucleic acids of the circular strand with a promotor sequence, a coding sequence and a termination signal to be administered by jet injection for the treatment of cancer.
