2001 OCT 25 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Pangene Corp., a privately held pharmaceutical company, has received a grant for innovative breast cancer treatments from the California Breast Cancer Research Program (BCRP). The grant supports development of drugs inhibiting DNA repair proteins.

Pangene discovered important DNA repair proteins overexpressed in breast and many other tumors. Overexpression of DNA repair proteins in breast and other cancers causes resistance to radiation and DNA damaging chemotherapy. Pangene identified inhibitors of DNA repair proteins. The grant will enable further measurements on drug inhibitors of DNA repair proteins.
