NOSH-aspirin (NBS-1120) inhibits pancreatic cancer cell growth in a xenograft mouse model: Modulation of FoxM1, p53, NF-κB, iNOS, caspase-3 and ROS.

Pancreatic cancer has poor survival rates and largely ineffective therapies. Aspirin is the prototypical anti-cancer agent but its long-term use is associated with significant side effects. NOSH-aspirin belongs to a new class of anti-inflammatory agents that were designed to be safer alternatives by releasing nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide.
