Patent

CA 2451841

The efficacy of conventional cancer therapies such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiation is enhanced by the use of a therapeutic material which binds to and interacts with galectins. The therapeutic material can enhance apoptosis thereby increasing the effectiveness of oncolytic agents. It can also inhibit angiogenesis thereby moderating tumor growth and/or metastasis.

La présente invention concerne l'amélioration de l'efficacité de thérapies anticancéreuses conventionnelles (chirurgie, chimiothérapie, radiothérapie) par utilisation d'un matériau thérapeutique se liant aux galectines avec lesquelles il entre en interaction. Ce matériau thérapeutique peut renforcer l'apoptose et donc augmenter l'efficacité des oncolytiques. Il peut également inhiber l'angiogenèse et donc modérer la métastase et/ou la croissance tumorale.
