Potential Cancer Therapies Invented at Ohio State are Licensed to Drug Development Firm
Promising new cancer therapies created in a laboratory at The Ohio State University are on an accelerated pace toward testing thanks to a new licensing agreement between Ohio State and a New Jersey-based drug development firm. Arno Therapeutics Inc. has been granted exclusive rights to test the agents and take them to market. The agents are two small molecules that are considered to have powerful cancer-fighting properties. They were developed by Ching-Shih Chen, the holder of the Lucius A. Wing Chair of Cancer Research and Therapy in Ohio State's Comprehensive Cancer Center and professor of pharmacy and internal medicine. The molecules are called OSU-03012 (NSC D728209) and OSU-HDAC42 (NSC D736012). OSU-03012 triggers cancer cells to self-destruct. The molecule triggers cancer cell death by blocking the transmission of key information from the cell surface down into the cell. In laboratory studies, this agent also has been shown to interact with existing cancer therapies in promising ways.
