Regen BioPharma Initiates NR2F6 T Cell Immunotherapy Preclinical Program with Dr. Santosh Kesari, Director of Neuro-oncology at John Wayne Cancer Institute
PR Newswire - Thu Nov 12, 7:30AM CST
Regen BioPharma Inc. (OTCBB: RGBP) and (OTC PINK: RGBP) announced today the initiation of preclinical studies evaluating utilization of NR2F6 gene silencing as a means of stimulating the immune system in cancer patients with Dr. Santosh Kesari, Professor of Neurosciences, Director of Neuro-Oncology, and Chair of Translational Neuro-Oncology and Neurotherapeutics at the John Wayne Cancer Institute. The studies will examine whether initial observations in mouse immune cells that NR2F6 silencing can be translated into human immune cells. If successful, these studies will serve as the basis for a new cancer immunotherapeutic drug candidate, which would be useful as a monotherapy or adjuvant with other cancer immune therapies.
Regen BioPharma Files Patent Application on Personalized Checkpoint Inhibitor Cancer Immunotherapy
PR Newswire - Wed Nov 04, 7:30AM CST
Regen BioPharma Inc. (OTCBB: RGBP) and (OTC PINK: RGBP) announced the filing of a patent application covering gene silencing of NR2F6 (a Protein Coding Gene) in various immune cell populations as a means of selectively activating the immune system to kill cancer cells. Researchers at Regen BioPharma have previously demonstrated that NR2F6 is an inhibitor of T cell development and activation[1]. In addition, a recent independent publication showed that immune cells from mice lacking NR2F6 are capable of killing prostate cancer cells[2]. The current patent application integrates the Company's knowledge of NR2F6 function, with clinically-applicable gene silencing techniques to create a patient-specific immune based therapy.
