Synergistic Efficacy of CDK4/6 Inhibitor Abemaciclib and HDAC Inhibitor Panobinostat in Pancreatic Cancer Cells.

The current 5-year survival rate of pancreatic cancer is about 12%, making it one of the deadliest malignancies. The rapid metastasis, acquired drug resistance, and poor patient prognosis necessitate better therapeutic strategies for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Multiple studies show that combining chemotherapeutics for solid tumors has been successful.

Recent advancement in targeted therapy and role of emerging technologies to treat cancer.

Cancer is a complex disease that causes abnormal cell growth and spread. DNA mutations, chemical or environmental exposure, viral infections, chronic inflammation, hormone abnormalities, etc., are underlying factors that can cause cancer.

Metabolic alterations and mitochondrial dysfunction underlie hepatocellular carcinoma cell death induced by a glycogen metabolic inhibitor.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths. There is an urgent need for new targets to treat HCC due to limited treatment options and drug resistance. Many cancer cells are known to have high amount of glycogen than their tissue of origin and inhibition of glycogen catabolism induces cancer cell death by apoptosis.

Nanoformulation of PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera targeting 'undruggable' for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

To explore the anticancer activity of a novel BRD4 protein degrader ARV-825 (ARV) and its nanoformulation development (ARV-NP) for treatment of pancreatic cancer. ARV-NP were prepared using nanoprecipitation method and characterized for their physicochemical properties and various anticancer cell culture assays. ARV-NP (89.

Inhibition of glycogen catabolism induces intrinsic apoptosis and augments multikinase inhibitors in hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading cancers in the world in incidence and mortality. Current pharmacotherapy of HCC is limited in the number and efficacy of anticancer agents. Metabolic reprogramming is a prominent feature of many cancers and has rekindled interest in targeting metabolic proteins for cancer therapy.
