Abstract

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the 4th leading cause of cancer-related deaths and is in dire need of new therapeutics. Deregulation of MYC function, a proto-oncogene involved in tumorigenesis, is a feature common to most malignancies including CRC. However, no MYC inhibitor has obtained clinical approval yet. In this study, we pre-clinically validated in CRC the efficacy of Omomyc mini-protein, a MYC inhibitor developed by Dr. Soucek (Principal Investigator), which is currently in Phase I/IIa clinical trial.
