Mitochondrial delivery of DNA-alkylating anticancer agents
FY 2011-12
Summary
We are developing compounds that evade the resistance mechanisms that cancer cells use to override the effects of anticancer therapies. By delivering the drug to a unique site within the cell, therapeutic molecules are hidden from deactivators and made more potent and effective against resistant cancers.
