Targeted Combination Therapies: A New Frontier in the Treatment of TP53 and KRAS Mutation-Associated Cancers.
Robert B KargboPublished in: ACS medicinal chemistry letters (2023)
This Patent Highlight discusses novel therapeutic strategies for treating cancers associated with TP53 or KRAS mutations, particularly colorectal, pancreatic, and non-small-cell lung cancers. It focuses on the use of combination therapies involving two distinct compounds and a KRAS inhibitor. Researchers are exploring the effectiveness of these combined therapies in patient treatment and investigating their potential applications in drug manufacturing. With cancer being a global health challenge, these innovative strategies could present a breakthrough in enhancing survival rates and improving the quality of life for patients.
