Project: GLYCex: A novel therapeutic strategy to fight glycolytic cancers

Acronym GLYCex (Reference Number: 113882)
Duration 01/04/2020 - 01/04/2023
Project Topic Our goal is to market a drug providing a treatment option for glycolytic, i.e. the majority of aggressive cancers. We will advance an innovative chemical lead with strong in vitro effect into a drug candidate, ready for clinical phase I studies. In-vivo effects will be shown by using xenografts generated from patients with aggressive tumours. We will investigate the correlation between drug candidate efficacy and tumour molecular phenotype to develop a companion biomarker for patient selection.
