  • Patent number: 8242167
    Abstract: A method for treating cancer by killing selected tumor cells such as human breast, non-small cell lung cancer cells, pancreatic cancer cells, osteosarcoma cancer cells, and glioblastoma cells, includes administering to a patient in need of treatment, an effective amount of at least one mannose analog such as 2-DG or 2-FM or 2-CM. The killing is believed to be due to an interference with glycosylation. A theranostic method includes determining whether a patient. cancer tumor sample comprises cells sensitive to killing to at least one mannose analog due to an interference with glycosylation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 26, 2007
    Date of Patent: August 14, 2012
    Assignee: University of Miami
    Inventors: Theodore J. Lampidis, Metin Kurtoglu, Johnathan C. Maher
  • Publication number: 20110183926

  • Patent number: 7338940
    Abstract: Glycolytic inhibitors are useful in the treatment of solid tumors by attacking anaerobic cells at the center on the tumor. 2-deoxyglucose, oxamate and various analogs thereof are identified as having a natural selective toxicity toward anaerobic cells, and will significantly increase the efficacy of standard cancer chemotherapeutic and radiation regiments as well as new protocols emerging with anti-angiogenic agents.
    Type: Grant
