Cancer Vaccines: Drug Pipeline Update 2008 Out Now.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c35509) has announced the addition of "Cancer Vaccines Cancer vaccines A treatment that uses the patient's immune system to attack cancer cells. Mentioned in: Pancreatic Cancer, Exocrine : Drug Pipeline Update 2008" to their offering. The development of cancer vaccines has been a real roller-coaster, from the early excitement to the total disillusionment Disillusionment Adams, Nick loses innocence through WWI experience. [Am. Lit.: “The Killers”] Angry Young Men disillusioned postwar writers of Britain, such as Osborne and Amis. [Br. Lit. and now to the resurrection. Today, there are more than 170 companies developing more than 260 non-antibody based vaccine drugs, therapeutic and preventive vaccines included. Vaccines are being developed for over 30 different cancer indications and the number of vaccine targets has increased to over 50 different molecular targets in just a few years. Non-Antibody Based Cancer Vaccines: Drug Pipeline Update provides extensive research and development information with global coverage, vital for any serious player in the field. Read more below how Non-Antibody Based Cancer Vaccines: Drug Pipeline Update is organized: Investigators Includes more than 170 investigators Drug name & Synonyms Lists commercial, generic and code names for drugs. In all more than 400 names Developmental stage Contains more than 260 non-antibody vaccine drugs in development or more than 350 clinical projects for cancer: greater than 18 projects in Phase III greater than 85 projects in Phase II greater than 115 projects in Phase I greater than 125 projects in Preclinical Cancer Indications PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) A framework for creating a secure method for exchanging information based on public key cryptography. The foundation of a PKI is the certificate authority (CA), which issues digital certificates that authenticate the identity of drugs in development for over 30 cancer indications - Breast cancer - Colorectal cancer colorectal cancer Malignant tumour of the large intestine (colon) or rectum. Risk factors include age (after age 50), family history of colorectal cancer, chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, benign polyps, physical inactivity, and a diet high in fat. - Hematological hematological, hematologic pertaining to or emanating from blood cells. hematological tests total and differential white cell counts, hematocrit estimation, erythrocyte count. cancers - Lung cancer lung cancer, cancer that originates in the tissues of the lungs. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States in both men and women. Like other cancers, lung cancer occurs after repeated insults to the genetic material of the cell. - Melanoma - Prostate cancer prostate cancer, cancer originating in the prostate gland. Prostate cancer is the leading malignancy in men in the United States and is second only to lung cancer as a cause of cancer death in men. Etc Target More than 50 different targets. Examples: - BCL BCL - The successor to Atlas Commercial Language. ["The Provisional BCL Manual", D. Hendry, U London 1966]. 2-associated X protein - cancer/testis antigen 1 - CD86 antigen (CD28 antigen ligand 2, B7-2 antigen) - cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (p21, Cip1) - EphA2 - interleukin 10 - major histocompatibility complex major histocompatibility complex n. Abbr. MHC A chromosomal segment that codes for cell-surface histocompatibility antigens and is the principal determinant of tissue type and transplant compatibility. Also called HLA complex. , class I, B - toll-like receptor 7 - transforming protein E7, human papilloma papilloma /pap·il·lo·ma/ (pap?il-o´mah) a benign tumor derived from epithelium.papillo´matous fibroepithelial papilloma a type containing extensive fibrous tissue. virus-16 - tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 1 Description Progress analysis and review of drug development. A typical drug profile reports on: - Drug Name & Synonyms - Investigator(s) - Indication(s) - Developmental Stage(s) - Mechanism(s) - Target(s) - Clinical Development - Developmental History - Scientific Data - Patents - In/Out-licensing - Collaborations - Analysts Comments How May Drug Pipeline Update Be of Use?
