Targeting Lectins on Cancer Cells

•

Lectins are cell surface proteins that bind

certain carbohydrates

•

Galectins are a type of lectin that specifically

bind galactose molecules

•

Galectins have been shown to affect cell

development, differentiation, apoptosis and

tumor metastasis

Pre-clinical Studies

•

Selected 5-FU to investigate modulation of

chemotherapeutic effects

•

Screened galactomannans for ability to

reduce 5-FU toxicity in mice

•

Selected a galactomannan from Guar Gum

for its potential therapeutic utility

•

Investigated DAVANAT

effects of other chemotherapeutics

(irinotecan, doxorubicin, 5-FU, leucovorin,

and Avastin

Second Application: Liver Disease

•

Research collaboration w/ Mt. Sinai School of

Medicine to evaluate the anti-fibrotic effects of

carbohydrate compounds

•

Fibrosis (scarring) is the reason patients develop

liver failure & may need a transplant

•

25 million Americans are or have been afflicted by

liver/biliary disease

•

More than 4 million Americans w/ Hepatitis C virus;

many will develop severe fibrosis & liver failure

Summary and Conclusions

•

Company strength in carbohydrate chemistry with

strong patent position

•

Pre-clinical animal data shows DAVANAT

improves

toxicity and efficacy characteristics of co-

administered chemotherapeutics

•

Phase I results show that DAVANAT

is well-tolerated

in cancer patients, with/without co-administered 5-FU

•

Phase II colon cancer study suggests efficacy of

DAVANAT

with 5-FU in stabilizing disease

•

Stable disease in 20/60 end-stage patients, who were

refractory to chemotherapy

•

Enrolling Phase II studies address first line therapies

with DAVANAT

in combination with other

chemotherapeutics and biologics

•
