Slide 7: How Our Drugs Work: Molecular Switches
How Our Drugs Work: “Molecular Switches” Akt & Ras are growth factors PTX’s drugs block the Akt & found in cancer cells – Ras growth signals, when they are turned on, switching the growth signals they send a signal to the off and causing the cancer cancer cell to grow cell to die PTX-100 PTX-200 + c
Slide 8: PTX-200: Novel Akt inhibition
PTX-200: Novel Akt inhibition • Hyperactive Akt signaling: » Plays key role in many cancers including breast, ovarian, colorectal, PTX-200 (TCN-P) prostate, pancreatic and hematologic cancers » Confers resistance to chemotherapy » Strong pharma interest in Akt as a drug target PTX-200 • A small mole
Slide 9: PTX-200: Mechanism of Action – Normal Cell
PTX-200: Mechanism of Action – Normal Cell AKT is an ON/OFF switch that controls normal cell division Add Growth Factor Non-dividing Cell Dividing Cell AKT moves to cell membrane where it gets phosphorylated P Receptor Akt and activated to stimulate ON P cell division AKT is ON when phosphorylated a
Slide 10: PTX-200: Mechanism of Action – Cancer Cell
PTX-200: Mechanism of Action – Cancer Cell Some cancer cells contain Akt that is always phosphorylated* stimulating cells to divide forever Akt is stuck in the ON position Untreated Cancer Cell Akt ON P Synthesis Uncontrolled Growth TUMOR Cell Division 9 * (Switch in ON position)
Slide 11: PTX-200: Mechanism of Action – Treated Cancer Cell
PTX-200: Mechanism of Action – Treated Cancer Cell Prevents AKT from anchoring to membrane and causing cancer Treated Cancer Cells Treatment With PTX-200 Akt ON P Akt Prevents Akt from OFF moving to membrane keeping it in the OFF position Tumor Cells Stop Dividing 10
