PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Dec. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- New research from cancer research and treatment organization City of Hope in the December 2022 issue of JNCCN—Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network finds that only 30% of patients with advanced neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) say their top goal for treatment is living longer. The remaining patients selected other single specific treatment goals as most important, such as maintaining the ability to do daily activities, reducing or eliminating pain, or reducing or eliminating symptoms like fatigue. 66.7% of those surveyed agreed with the statement: "I would rather live a shorter life than lose my ability to take care of myself."

화요일, 11월 15, 2022

REHOVOT, Israel, Nov. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Purple Biotech Ltd. ("Purple Biotech", or the "Company") (NASDAQ/TASE: PPBT), a clinical-stage company developing first-in-class, effective and durable therapies that harness the power of the tumor microenvironment to overcome tumor immune evasion and drug resistance, today announced that it is presenting data that provide a strong rationale for advancing CM24 as an anti-cancer, anti-metastatic agent.  The poster, entitled “CM24, a Novel Anti-CEACAM1 mAb, Suppresses Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET)-induced Migration and Metastasis of Cancer Cells,” is presented at the American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) Special Conference: Cancer Metastasis, taking place in Portland, Oregon, US, on November 14-17, 2022.

Key Points: 
  • The poster, entitled CM24, a Novel Anti-CEACAM1 mAb, Suppresses Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET)-induced Migration and Metastasis of Cancer Cells, is presented at the American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) Special Conference: Cancer Metastasis, taking place in Portland, Oregon, US, on November 14-17, 2022.
  • NET-associated CEACAM1 constitutes adhesion focal for cancer cells and, therefore, is suggested as a potential therapeutic target for preventing metastatic progression.
  • The preclinical data show that CM24 binds to the NET structure, significantly suppressing NET-induced cancer cell migration and inhibiting cancer metastasis in mouse models.
  • These data demonstrate the potential of CM24 as a powerful treatment for patients with cancer, said Gil Efron, Chief Executive Officer, Purple Biotech.
