theflyonthewall.com: Alnylam Pharmaceuticals new preclinical ALN-VSP data
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals announced new pre-clinical data from its ALN-VSP program presented at the AACR-NCI-EORTC Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics International conference being held November 15 - 19, 2009 in Boston, Mass. ALN-VSP is an RNAi therapeutic currently in a Phase I clinical trial for the treatment of liver cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma and other solid tumors with liver involvement. The new data demonstrated robust anti-tumor activity in orthotopic liver tumor models comprised of both HCC- and colorectal cancer-derived cell lines. ALN-VSP was also shown to act on disseminated tumors outside of the liver. Further, in addition to anti-proliferative effects, studies showed that ALN-VSP exerts a potent anti-angiogenic effect on tumors. :theflyonthewall.com
